Liam has a baby


Every Monday, I find a spare few minutes to fill out a form entitled 'What did you do on your weekend?'.

I fill it in, and email it back to Liam's director of childcare.  Basically, the centre is becoming accredited and each week they focus on a new learning module.  By giving them a rundown of our weekends together, they can pick out certain themes and incorporate it into Liam's week, therefore making sure there is a strong link between home/family/childcare.

Today went a little something like this:

'On Saturday morning we woke early and decided to catch the train together and go and have breakfast.  Afterwards, we went to Toys R Us and bought Liam a cash register as he likes to play 'shopping'.  Liam's dad also found an Ernie hand puppet that he took a liking to.  Liam likes to shove Ernie up his t-shirt and pretend he is pregnant.  Ernie is now referred to as The Baby'. 

I re-read it.  Why is my son pretending to be pregnant?  Is he telling me something? 

Luckily we didn't have to witness a birthing scene.  The Baby is magically pulled out from under his t-shirt and 'borned'.

I emailed the form off to the director.  Good luck with that!

That's so cute. Mine would read so boringly:

"We woke up. Ate breakfast. Did a whole heap of nothingness. The end."
