Ben: Mum I love you, I want to keep you till you die
Me: I love you too, that’s nice to know.
Ben: I won’t want you when you die
Me: Well you will just have to remember me then won’t you?
Ben: I will try and remember, it will be a long time till you die won’t it?
Me: I hope so Ben
Ben: I think it will be a long time till we die cos we’re so good at following the instructions

Hahaha, following the instructions is important.
#1: Don't die!
I'm curious as to what he thinks these instructions are lol x
Awww ha ha – out of the mouth of babes, so cute x
Hahahaha so cute! x
Haha bless. Hopefully he will keep following instructions now 🙂
Feyi
I certainly hope so!
What a wise little one! I am an avid instruction follower and had never realised the true importance of doing so until now 😉 Great post!
He's full of little gems 😉
Kids are just ace. Not enough to want one, but I do love how their minds work.
😀 That really made me giggle 😉 x
ah bless. and fair dos for not wanting to keep you after you die. You'd start to smell after a while.
I hadn't thought of it like that! 😉
Ahhhhhhhh he's lovely. Yes mum – I agree with Pippas rule number 1 🙂
Awww this is overly cute! Ben's got a little brain on him there with conversations like that! 🙂 xx
His language skills never cease to amaze me. He already understands and attempts sarcasm – he was only 4 less than a month ago! x
Too cute!
How lovely, I love the innocence of childre
bless the little angel!
Good instructions!
So cute, it's got a very Winnie The Pooh logic to it. Kid's just have it sussed don't they :O)
It is very much a case of "Out of the mouths of babes" isn't it! Totally see where you're coming from with the WTP reference too!
