dip dip and phone sex

I just love the things kids do and say, my littlest grandson is 18 months old and already knows he has me on a butty. He wandered into the kitchen, went up to DD and said 'More, preeze' She said 'What do you want?'
He obviously decided she wasn't quick enough on the uptake so he walked round to me and said 'More dip dip preeze', he sounds like a cat purring when he tries to say please.
I got an egg cup out of the cupboard and squeezed a little bit of ketchup into it, I lifted him on to my knee and he sat there dipping his little spoon into the ketchup and eating it. And yes I know ketchup is full of sugar but he had a scant teaspoon of it and it took him about 20 minutes to eat it.

Later that same day my eight year old granddaughter came up to me and asked 'Nana, what's phone sex'.
I was speechless for a few moments, then I said 'Why do you want to know? You don't have a phone'
She looked a little puzzled. 'It's written on this bottle' she said passing me this.
I was greatly relieved to only have to explain why we used this in our fish tank, rather than trying to explain the complexities of phone sex to an eight year old!

Like the time bear asked what child abuse was - those moments when your mouth is stuck on pause when your brain is on fast forward! I love the idea of the dip dip x

It's always best to ask them why before answering them, the clarification of the question saves loads of panic. Our boys know I am the soft spot, as for tomato sauce the boys throw loads on their plate with what ever they are eating.

One son always could eat a ton of tomato sauce but show him a fresh tomato? No way.

I'm cooking the Sunday roast again today, I can't face another ruined meal at 8 o'clock at night with Steve either in a strop or...
