Some conversations you just don't want to have
MOTS has already told me in no uncertain terms that it's my job when it comes to explaining the birds and the bees. And as he's taken an interest in watching me go to the loo (a possibly early indicator for potty training?) then there's clearly more to be had.
What else could there be? I had one with Snoopy this evening...
Snoopy (AKA Grandad) Skyped me tonight to say thanks for the Christmas photo I sent down that I'd used on the front of his thank-you notes. And we got to talking about the longer days, and how it wouldn't be long before Spring etc.
There was another conversation around his current bedtime routine, of which tonight was a superb example, and how old he was and doing that, the shorter nights and longer days coming, how he's almost 17 moths old, rapidly heading for his 2nd birthday, and how we'd only just thrown out a balloon last week from hist first birthday, whooooooaaaaaaaa, who mentioned his SECOND birthday?
WTF? SECOND birthday? We're only just past his first, aren't we? Well, we're not far off the half way mark between 1 & 2.
I'm going to sue Madonna. The opening line to "Hung Up" is "Time goes by so slowly". This is in clear breach of some misrepresentation act or other, I'll get the lawyers to find out which.
Of all the conversations to have, that was one I didn't want to have. The first mention of his second birthday.
