Does Monday roll around quicker than any other day of the week? There’s a touch of fruitcake-iness going on here today and this mum is definitely in a Momdaze. Trying to shake it off will probably be a fruitless exercise.
The banana phone is renowned the world over for giving us a glimpse into kid’s imaginations.
If the conversations that have been relayed through the crescent-shaped fruit could be recorded and put into a book I’m sure it’d sell millions of copies.
My offspring would be able to contribute a few humdingers.
Last week Just 3 picked up his banana from the bench. He took it, sat down and started to have an animated conversation. I listened, not sure who he was talking with. After some pauses, where one can only assume the other person was talking, he said, ‘Mummy can’t come to the phone right now. You like to leave a message?’
As he peeled his banana and started to eat it, I said, ‘Buddy, I’m right here. You could’ve handed the phone to me.’
‘They didn’t want to talk to you and I wanted to eat my banana.’
Ah. Out of the mouths of babes.

That’s cute. 🙂
They have their moments of cuteness!
Funniest stories I know involves kids and the things they say… Great post…
I love it when they pull one out just when you need it.
that is tooooooo cute:) you’d be surprise, not everyone who lives in a banana wishes to have a conversation!
I was so ready to play along and then I was not required!
Lol. Awe, even I can’t share the disgusting things my kids do with bananas. A banana phone would be nice!
Should I dare ask?
Priceless!!
No price tag for my two!
That’s adorable. I’ve yet to see the banana phone happen here.
Maybe you go first?
Mostly, he doesn’t like bananas. He has an old cellphone that he uses. He’s been spending his time trying to tell a cartoon character from his favorite show that he can handle things.
That’s too funny.
Are you up for some secretary duties?
I’ve had to at some points. Mostly, he just looks up to tell me things are okay.
You did a great interpretation of my question although I did mean ‘secretary to Ionia’ duties!
It’s been rather low key so far. Kind of quiet around here with her on vacation. I’m bored.
I can change that for you if you like.
Why does that scare me?
lol
Didn’t you say you were bore?. What I’ll suggest will definitely take you out of your comfort zone.
Are you game?
I can try. Though, I’m still in my ‘just waking up’ phase of the day.
That’s okay.
It’ll take me a bit to organise.
Would an email in about an hour suit you?
I’m probably going to be running around for the next 2-2.5 hours. The joy of out of house errands.
I hear you *Charles sneaks off out the back door.
You can run……
🙂
Technically, it’s a walk to the grocery store and to get a haircut. Need to look more human for a wedding this weekend.
lol
I’ll let you off on that technicality. 🙂
I’m going to put it in a post instead. You can check it there, if you like, after your spruce up.
I’ll look out for it. Now I’m curious.
I ‘ll leave you to be curious…..
*bored
this is so great )
They have their moments where they are worth their weight in bananas especially after a tropical cyclone wipes out all the plantations.
Precious words.
Will try to have the video secretly recording next time.
I admit I have asked my daughter to repeat things that were so cute so I could capture it. She has been happy to do that lately. 🙂
Ha ha. My friend told me a great one today. Exams are going on in this country and her sister works with autistic kids. One returned from an exam today. He had a scribe to do his writing for him. He was very cross and told my friend that he didn’t like his scribe. He had not answered one of the questions at all. My friend said to him, “did you not know the answer?”, and he said, “No, but she did!”.
That is gorgeous and funny as!
How’re yours getting on?
Thank you. All going well at the moment. Another week and we’re finished. They are quite tired but not too grumpy.
