“I left them at Nana and Grandad’s”.

Sebastian has come out with some very interesting responses to comments from his dad and I recently. I can’t decide whether he is deliberately upping the ante on the ‘cheeky response’ front or whether it is accidental. Either way, it is very amusing.

Today’s “I left them at Nana and Grandad’s” isn’t my favourite ‘Sebastianism’ from the summer though. That dubious honour goes to saying – in response to being told to calm down and behave himself – “But I’m overtired”. He undoubtedly was, so I suppose he could be congratulated on his self-awareness, but it is rather galling that he seems to rarely listen to anything that is said to him, and yet he is able to parrot back words and phrases at will.

Sebastian starts school a week today. I am hoping that he keeps his newfound list of cheeky excuses for home use only, otherwise I could see him getting some interesting comments from his teacher on his first parents’ evening.
