Glad he didn’t say Uranus
Milo: “Mom, I have the power to throw you into a different universe.”
Me: “Oh? And what universe are you going to throw me into?”
Milo: “Mars.”
Milo: “Mom, I have the power to throw you into a different universe.”
Me: “Oh? And what universe are you going to throw me into?”
Milo: “Mars.”
Milo: “Do you know what’s a bad name for a movie? ‘Scary Robot Movie.'”
Me: “I don’t know, I can see that doing well with a certain demographic. Morris, do you want to see ‘Scary Robot Movie?'”
Morris: “Yeah!”
Milo: “Nope. It’s bad.”
Me: “Why, because it’s too obvious?”
Milo: “Yeah.”
Me: “Do you even know what obvious means?”
Milo: “Nope… Does it mean ‘really lame?’ Cuz I know what THAT means.”
Milo: “If a frog ate me, I’d just punch him in the stomach. I’d punch him IN the stomach. Even if it was slimy.”
Overheard from the living room, where Milo is playing Lego Batman: “Think you’re cool? Oh yeah? You’re barely cool, ya butt cheek.”
Heard from outside…
Milo: “Hey, Morris! You wanna play ‘stab the Morris?'”
Morris: “NO.”
Milo: “You look happy.”
Me: “I am! I just had a meeting with some great new clients and I’m so excited to be helping them with their website because they give local artists more exposure for their work, and that’s what I want to be doing, too.”
Milo: “I’m with you, Mom! Even though it’s totally boring and I don’t really know what you’re talking about, I’m with you.”
Milo: “Mom, wouldn’t it be mean if a babysitter actually sat on a baby? That would be so weird! And if the baby was only one month old… whoa!”
Milo: “Mom, look at the script I wrote!”
Me, glancing down at the sheaf of ink-covered papers he’s given me. “Don’t you mean, ‘look at the script I stamped?’”
Milo: “No, I wrote it in secret code so the Devil Masters can’t read it! Only the all-powerful Power Masters can read it. And we can use its magic to RULE YOU ALL!
Morris: “Mommy, I’m glad Daddy’s not dead.”
Me: “Me too, honey.”
Rob: “Me too!”
Morris: “If Daddy died, he would be a zombie.”
Milo: “Yeah, and all he’d ever make for dinner would be brain soup. And we’d be all, ‘bleaaaah!’ whenever he tried to make us eat it.”
Morris: “Brain soup isn’t good for me! I like apple poop. Uh huh! Apple poop is very, VERY good for me.”
Milo: “Mom, if you were a mouth without a body, and you were eating, then you’d go chew chew chew gulp and then the food would just fall out. And it would be poo. Yep, chew and poo, that’s what you’d do.”
