B: shmoogalooga boot boot, shmoogalooga doo.
that's my song.
I love the Jonah.
Me: How do you feel about school?
B: tired. I am tired at school.I love school. I love my teacher.
Me: what things do you do at school that you love?
B: just school!!!!play, recess, eat...play play eat. play play eat.
Me: how is that different than at home?
B: i don't know i don't know. what did you write? did you write i don't know? B says go to school. and that is my song with mommy writing it, and thank you to all who is going to see it. giggle. Can you write another?
Me: I'm still writing...
B: why why says the B..why why says the B... Because the Mokey is walking down the street today. Just because you have fish doesn't mean that you can go outside. Fish only go in water, they only go in water which they love for their whole lives. Even though you can see pants walking down the street by themselves....giggle. giggle hysterically.
Me: tell me a real story!
B: hmmm.. 1 2 3 walking down the street.....(repeatedly)
Me: continue...like a real story that i would tell you at bedtime.
B: once apon a time there was a little girl whose name was snake, she loved to dance everywhere. she danced at home, she danced on the street and she loved you. she loved you forever.
space space a couple of spaces in your head. she loved you and her family everyday, as you can see. Did you write that is the end?
Me: No I didn't.
B: Why not? Write it. Because that is the end.
Are you still writing? Is that the end? can you write another?
Me: yup. still writing. go ahead.
B: really? okay, but i'm not because...i'm....waiting....so you can send it....
Me: this isn't an email to send, it's a blog. for whoever wants to read it.
B: I want to do a blog. a real blog.
Me: that's what we're doing.
B: I want to write it and you tell me what to say. I want to write it like I am going to write it. But you tell me what to say.
Me: This part is actually kinda hard, trying to write down quickly everything you are saying...
B: okay, we are done. I put my [water] cup in the freezer because I am really hot and want it to be really cold but it isn't a glass cup it is a plastic cup and I want it to be really cold.....okay now we're done. Good bye. Except I want a picture of a cute kitten.

And the parents that go to work wonder why the parents that stay home have totally lost their marbles after a day home with a 5 year old........Just record this post and press repeat ALL DAY. that should give you an idea of why my mental capacity has shrunk....and why I crave adult conversation, but am not exactly sure how to handle it anymore....
lovely post
