let's see if i can remember this right (even though it just happened!) -
dominic says at bedtime, "tell me a story"
ok, once upon a time there was a mean monkey---
"no it was an escavator!"
ok, there was a mean excavator---
"no, she was nice! a nice mouth escavator!"
ok, there was a nice mouth excavator. and she always helped everyone and was nice to everyone. one day she saw a monkey---
"no, it was a truck!"
ok, the truck needed help carrying his groceries---
"no, it was a pick-a-purple-pickle-pick truck!"
ok, the pick-a-purple-pickle-pick truck needed help with groceries---
"no, it was carrying pickles!"
well, the excavator helped that truck carry his pickles---
"she carried them one at a time"
were they very big pickles?
"no, they were tiiiiiiiiny."
oh, well, then she can carry a lot of pickles if they were tiny.
"ok, they were a little bit tiny."
ok, she carried them one at a time across the river---
"to here!"
she carried them one at a time across the river to dominic's house---
"it's omi's house!"
she carried them one at a time to omi's house---
"she put them in a jar!"
ok, she put them in a jar in omi's fridge---
"no, she put them in the freezer! in the downstairs freezer!"
and then opa ate them---
"no, dominic ate one!"
ok---
"and it was TOTALLY SPICY!"
[at this point, i start dying of laughter]
"it's not funny!"
ok, opa was eating them and dominic came and said, can i have one? and then he ate one and it was TOTALLY SPICY.
"ok"
the end.
this afternoon he asked me to tell him a story about wheeler the truck who jumped over the fridge magnet! It was hilarious because he basically instructed me on how to tell the story.
ReplyDeleteI saw this on my blogger feed and read it and died of laughter! Dominic is one funny kid! Thomas read it too, and we were both laughing :)

this is typical of telling him stories - but the funniest so far!
