Jai received a new Octonaaaauuuuuts DVD today.
Whilst he slept on me for two hours this afternoon, Sarah and I enjoyed watching news and programs suitable for OUR age group.
Within moments of waking up, he asked: “I want Octonauts!” Yeah, that is a demand.
“No buddy, Octonauts are NOT for mornings.”
“I would like Octonauts … Pleeeeeeeeeease!” He is clever.
Mummy pipes in “I’d like Shaun the Sheep.” Hmmm, so would I.
“Okay, let’s compromise … two Octonauts episodes and two Shaun the sheep, then back to normal viewing.”
“I want four Octonauts!” No guessing who said that.
“Buddy, how about {with ONLY three fingers in air} one, two, three episodes?”
Mr oh-so-clever was to quick to respond “I want one two FOUR!!”
And then the negotiations broke down into tears. No, not me, him. Sigh.
OCTONAAAAUUUUUTS!
