Why I Love My Kids – Part 1 of 27

August 10th, 2006 · Posted in Family · 4 Comments

Mat wants to play Gamecube with me. He used to sit next to me while I played and just watch, every now and again having a game of Rogue Leader (which pretty much involved giving an 18 month old the controller, switching to the training level and watching him fly in circles with a huge grin on my face and intense concentration on his).

This morning he told me he wanted to play Mario with me. I told him that maybe we could play Super Monkey Ball instead. He thought that was a good idea as monkeys are “pretty funny”. So coming up is Super Monkey Ball Saturday. I love it when he displays an interest in my hobbies.

My Resident Evil 4 disc was sitting on the lounge last night. Which was slightly odd as the last place I remember putting it was in the Gamecube several weeks ago.

I went to replace it and saw that The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was in it’s place. I don’t like the boy playing with my expensive toys when I’m not around, but at least he has good taste.

RodeoClown:‘s grandmother-in-law had a pet monkey. Once upon a time.

Yep, I’m bulking up my arm muscles by picking him up.

I love him.

No. He’s not.
He is however, quite solid.
