Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted July 23, 2016 Super User Posted July 23, 2016 A conversation between myself and the 3 year old, affectionately known as Monkey. Monkey: Can I go swimming? Raider: No we are not going swimming today. 5 minutes later. Monkey: Can i go swimming? Raider: I just told you no swimming today. 10 minutes later Monkey: Can i go swimming now? Raider: Not today. Tomorrow yes, but not today. 12 minutes later while sitting on the couch. Monkey: Can i go swimming today? Raider: Nope. The answer is still the same. Monkey: Ok. Monkey walks past me and walks out the back door. Upon reentering he is carrying his swim suit over his shoulder. Raider: Where are you going with that? I told you no swimming today. Monkey: I know. (Walks right past me and goes up the stairs). 10 minutes later. Blondie Sparky: What made you decide Monkey could go swimming? Raider: I never told him he could go swimming. I said he had to wait until tomorrow. Enter Monkey wearing his swimsuit. Blondie Sparky: Well he came and got me up and said you said he could go swimming. Would I help him put on his bathing suit. Raider: I didn't say that. Blondie Sparky: Monkey did you lie to me? Monkey: I didn't lie. I said, could you help me put on my bathing suit I want to go swimming. -Scene- Apparently they have begun to try an play divide and conquer now. Monkey got in trouble with his mom for lying. And is not allowed to go swimming today either. His mom had sinus surgery yesterday and was trying to relax in bed while I was watching the kids like a good husband. I just can't believe that boy went and got his bathing suit and trotted off past me. Like it is the most normal thing in the world to walk around with a bathing suit hung over your shoulder. 1 Quote

Tracker22 Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Kids! My son is the worst to wrestle with. I am guaranteed to get hurt. He will kick me, knee me, head butt me, something and it's always an "accident ". 1 Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted July 24, 2016 Super User Posted July 24, 2016 The same three year old has unerring aim. I have to catch him when he jumps in my lap, or I take a knee to the fruit. He will never miss. 3 Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted July 25, 2016 Author Super User Posted July 25, 2016 All four of mine are that way. Those bony limbs hurt like hell. I swear they achieve terminal velocity when jumping. Quote
