girlofpreyI worry sometimes I talk to the kids in a way that's a little bit too old for them.
For example, my YN's down at our house at the moment. He turned three last December. He gave me a fire engine to play with, and he had an ambulance, and he told me to drive them off to the 'fire'. And I just thought "oh fire engine and ambulance, yeah". And then I started talking about the 'family in the house on fire'. To which he gave me a very odd look.
Possibly not very age appropriate.
Still not as bad as the time I was trying to entertain my MN while watching a nature documentary, asked him if he wanted to see some crocodiles, and accidentally let him watch an antelope getting ripped apart. I still sometimes worry about him turning into a serial killer possibly because of that.
Need to consider some of the things I say to the kids a little more.
