Conversations with my boy.

by Kelley

in Stuff about Boo

My boy and I had a day together.

Everyone else out of the house, just me and my boy.

We went to do some groceries.  Boo and I arm in arm.

He singing a tune of his own composition, me dying from the cuteness.

Every now and then he would stop and just randomly hug me.

*swoon*

Every person we passed he would flash them a smile and an ‘excuse me!’

My face was cracking with the smiling.  I chose to ignore the fuckers and flashed them a dazzling smile.

Cause dammit, that kid is so freaking CUTE!

Home, unpack, sit down with a latte.

He wanders over…

‘Hey Mummy!  What is that shirt you have on?’

I am wearing a light green shirt.  I only wear black or brown. It is very very different.

‘It is a green shirt’

‘Where did you get it Mummy?’

‘I dunno.  I can’t remember’

‘What does it smell like?’  *sniff sniff*

Me laughing ‘What does it smell like Boo?’

‘It smells like shirt’

‘Oh.  Do you like it?’

‘On you I like it’

And I dissolved into a puddle on the floor.  Death by adorableness.

It actually happened last Monday.

But still melt-in-a-puddleable a week later.

Man, I hope ‘shirt’ is a good smell…

Awwwwww! I feel all gooey melty too, and he ain’t even my kid!

Kinda jealous over the huge difference in the talks me and my boy have. I hate stuttering while trying to answer one of his latest revelations… Don’t they have a book or something for that? Like quick “right” answers for Mommy? Cuz I’m all out!

So if biscuits are cookies, then cookies are _____? The world may never know.

Aww…. that makes me miss my grandson so bad! I love how he does exactly as your little guy does: he hugs me for no reason. That is the BEST feeling in the world.

Why can’t adults be that spontaneous and giving? I’m off to hug someone right now!

Ach. Don’t forget though: he’s trying to butter you up for the future, when he starts to drive you crazy.

You should seriously schedule time like this on a more regular basis. It is SO worth it.

I am a goopy mess because of all the kid love going on out on the Internet today. I’m this close to not being able to sit upright now after reading this!

LOVE!

Very cool. I love it when you have days like that. But it makes it so much harder to punish them when they start your car and drive it backwards through your garage.

I have my long sleeved shirts done by our Chinese Laundry in town. No starch. Just pressed. I LOVE the smell of those shirts when they come back from the laundry. There is almost nothing like the smell of a clean, fresh shirt (except maybe the clean sheets thing – but that makes me horny so we won’t talk about that – I DO have to get some work done today). I assume that was a ‘fresh’ shirt. Maybe he was diggin’ mommy pheromones.

Thanks for sharing this.

Aren’t kids wonderful?

Of course, the conversations with my step son go like this:

“You’re going to behave in class today, right?”

*nods*

“You’re going to listen to the teacher on the first try, right?”

*nods*

“You’re a good boy, and I want you to show everyone else that, okay?”

*nods*

*waits for a minute*

“Do you think I could spit as high as the ceiling?”

*stunned*

Too damn cute. Yeah, I’m thinking shirt smell on me wouldn’t be as appealing.

Little unexpected surprises happen just like that out of the blue, and are so precious. Glad for you, Kel, and for Boo.

Dude – this post ended in CUTENESS?! I thought for sure we were going down the “and then he projectile vomited all over it” path. I’m a little disappointed.

How awesome is Boo!

I bet days like this one make up for the nights when he is bouncing off the walls at 4am.

‘What does it smell like Boo?’

‘It smells like shirt’

‘Oh. Do you like it?’

‘On you I like it’

P.S. Why do you only wear black or brown? You would look great in other colours. Red for instance, or purple…blue…..did I mention red?

Only wear black or brown? Woman, you would sooooo fit in here in Belgium…the world capital of black and brown wearers!

May I borrow Boo? It has been a very long time since I experienced human cuteness as wonderful and sweet as that! Somehow as much fun as kitty cuteness is, Boo beats it everytime, what a guy!

I took the boy with me last weekend while I ran errands. He was so happy…wanted to run more. He’s been missing me since I started working outside the house. It was lovely to spend the day with him…

Lattes and cuteness? I’d say that’s fairly well sustaining. 😉

Those are just the best days ever! I also look forward to them, so glad you had one recently.
