Idioms... (Cute!)

Thought it would be nice to share some of the amusing aspects of ASD - Ds has had some corkers recently :)

Had a moment last night whereby he called downstairs "mummmmm ive got hiccups"... my completely thoughtless response was "okay go back to bed and hold your breath..."

5 minutes later.... "mummmmmmm i cant catch it!!!!"

Soooo cute :) and makes you realise just how much absolute gibberish we talk sometimes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • hi - a few things came to mind.  When he was about 5 I sd "you can't play in the garden, it's too wet".  He was sitting on the floor, looking at the window + started saying "it's 1 wet, 2 wet, 3 wet!"  Then there was a lovely time when he couldn't pronounce Exeter properly.  We were sitting on the sofa + he was cross legged on the floor.  He sd "Excester" + looked at us, knowing he was wrong.  We sd "exeter" + he mispronounced it again.  We all looked at each other + started laughing together.  All in on the joke.  Doesn't happen often.  Something recent that made me almost laugh.  We were in town.  I noticed there was bird poo on the back of his coat.  I stopped + sd "oh look".  I knew by his expression he didn't know what it was.  I told him that a bird had been flying in the sky + had poohed on his coat.  He absolutely stared at me in disbelief - face a picture.  I sd "birds don't have toilets".  The expression stayed the same.  I kept my face straight but it wasn't easy!
