LOL YOU JUST GOT SHOT BY THE RUSSIAN ARMY.
JUST KIDDING.
APRIL FOOLZ.
amazing joke last year in history with Rachel.
you had to have been there.
anyway, nothing really happened today;
even though I was expecting fireworks or something because it was April Fool's.
goes to show you can never rely on people when you need them the most.
I spent lots of time with my Joseph today.
as I always do when he's around.
he's amazing, cynical, and he gets my jokes.
and he has the cutest innocent puppy face I have ever seen.
okay, I lie, I have seen cuter ones, but who cares?
Its such a pity that Joseph is only eight years old.
ten years older and I would have married him on the spot.
but paedophilia aside;
he really makes childcare bearable for me.
what normal eight-year old knows how to use sarcasm?
and he's cynical, for god's sake.
he's EIGHT.
(turning nine on April 20th, I have to get him something. he is my favourite.)
For all the other kids in childcare, I have to be somewhat patronising.
"Oh Amy, that's a beautiful drawing you've got there!"
"Yes Xavier, that is the best paper aeroplane I have ever seen. Did you make it?"
"Of course not, Reanna, I think you're the most gorgeous girl ever!"
Not so with Joseph.
On a discussion of whether or not Ruby was the most adorable five-year old I've seen;
"Priya, I can't believe you actually think Ruby is cute. I think I'm cuter,"
"Joseph, anything is cute compared to you."
Joseph puts on aforementioned irresistible puppy-innocent face.
"Joe, that really doesn't work on me,"
"Doesn't it? It works on all the other teachers. Suckers,"
Does that even SOUND like an eight-year old to you?
If I have a son, I want a Joseph clone.
Please God, hear my prayer.
