I was going to write a about all the Danielisms I have been meaning to post, but my children were all shits tonight and they have all gone out of my head.
You can tell it’s the end of the week, they are all tired and therefore vacillate between manic running and screaming, general defiance and downright laughter in the face of mortal danger from their Merlot infused mother. (or was it Shiraz?)
Hubby made a chicken lasagne that we have been meaning to try for ages and the kids all sniffed at it and promptly left the table. That is, all except Isabel who sat crying because ‘kannie eet nie Mamma’. I still can’t help but take it personally when they don’t eat food that was prepared with so much care. Even after all this time.
Back to the Danielism, he has this really cute way of saying “Excuse me” whenever he needs to get your attention. We should probably be grateful that he is so well-mannered, but it makes us giggle. And he’s quite the little joker. With a very, very kind heart, he’s such a special little man. Yes, yes, his Father’s child 🙂
Here he is this avie in the car, on the way to collect his sisters. He had Mignon’s necklace on his head, which he very kindly put on her neck when we arrived. He also kindly let me collect him today as he instructed me to get ‘Ouma Hannetjie’ to fetch him yesterday. Aren’t I lucky?
Darling D!
btw did you taste the Lasagne?
such a sweet little boy! 🙂
i LOVE lasagne! did you have to make something else for the kids to eat?
Ag man, what a cute photie 🙂 And how sweet that he put the necklace round his sister’s neck 🙂
So, I’m curious. What did the kids eat? We also take it personally when they won’t eat something that’s been prepared with lots of care and effort. Strange how they love the ‘quick’ meals that don’t take any effort to prepare 🙁
Oh boy he gets more handsome by the photo!!! What did you do with the lasagne? xx
my kids are the same about new food – its a mission to get them to try.
hehehe, Maybe it was a blend, those Cabernet-Savignon’s tend to infuse me too…
enjoy the weekend.xx
she’s going to send us some:-)
LOL, we’ll give it to the garden boy tomorrow and the kids’ we gave to the Labby 🙂
Hehe, infusion is the bomb!
I don’t expect them to eat it all, but I do expect them to try it.
Hell. No. I only cook once, there’s enoguh cleaning up to do. Sorry, I know I sound really tough, but if they don’t eat, they are just not that hungry. Plus, if they had at least tried the food I would have probably given them something. But they didn’t 🙁
I was delicious!
They ate a big fat nothing.
Love Daniel’s style!
He is so funny!
