kid conversations here at Chateau Steelypips

Anecdote one:

A few days ago, the Pip told me that "Mister Nobody" was his invisible friend's first name.

His full name is Mister Nobody Patootie-Booty-Butt Something.

Anecdote two:

Tonight SteelyKid attempted to fend off bedtime through a monologue recreating the history on Earth by going from her and her brother, to her ancestors back to her great-great-grandparents (one generation at a time), then to cousins of cousins, then to the interconnectedness of all humanity, then to humanity's primate ancestors, then a side trip to birds and dinosaurs, then to the start of life on Earth, and then the formation of the Earth itself.

And now, since I was up at five this morning to take the Pip for a minor surgical procedure (probe of not-properly-draining tear duct; required general anesthesia because eye; all's well), I must get the laundry out of the dryer and faceplant into bed.

Random question: at Nine Worlds you recced a fic that crossed His Dark Materials with Narnia. Do you remember author or title? I'd love to read it!

D'aww.

I'm glad the surgical procedure went well.

Hope you got rest!

Your kids are amazing. I love both of these anecdotes enormously.

A fact for which I am more profoundly grateful than words can say!
