Project 365

Too cute not to share - Ayden fell asleep on the couch with his new ladybug!

Project 365

Ayden has a thing for ladybugs. He freaking LOVES them. So I made him a plush ladybug! He loves it!

Oh, and he's also doing his Gilbert Gottfried impression in this pic . . . . .

In case you don't know who Gilbert Gottfried is, here's a reference pic:

Eh? EH? Close resemblence . . .

Burning Ladybugs . . . .

If you read my post yesterday, you saw an adorable picture of my son with a ladybug. You also read something a little disturbing that he said about ladybugs. If you missed it, here's what he said:

"Ladybug fly away, your house is on fire, your children will burn."

After I stopped laughing hysterically, I was all WTF??? Your children will burn??????

My son is sweet and adorable and completely without homicidal tendencies. Where the hell did he get this?

I was telling people at work yesterday what he said and joking that my mother-in-law (who watches Ayden when Jeremy and I are at work) is the one he got it from.

Which turns out, is totally freaking true.

No joke. Jeremy said that MIL heard it as a nursery rhyme when she was little.

Ummmmmmm, okaaaaaaaaaay.

But I looked it up on the interwebs and yeah, it's a nursery rhyme.

Here's how it really goes:

Ladybug! Ladybug!

Fly away home.

Your house is on fire.

And your children all gone.
All except one,

And that's little Ann,

For she crept under

The frying pan

So yeah. It's a legit nursery rhyme. Except my son apparently took some artistic liberties and changed "children all gone" to "your children will burn".

Or he's 3 and didn't remember it correctly.

One of the two.

Ayden freaking loves lady bugs. LOVES them. He has one on his face. Because he's awesome.

We asked him what the lady bug's name was, and this is what he said:

"Lady bug fly home, your house is on fire and your children will burn."

No shit, y'all. My adorable 3 year old said that.
