Out of the Mouth of Babes #4

I do love random conversations with the boys and it always seems to be when I am driving; usually these talks happen in little 15 minute bursts between places.

Recently I picked James up from nursery and on our way home James thought this was the best opportunity to be random:

James: “I don’t like Batman”

(This was a seriously proud moment for a Marvel loving Dad)

Me: “I don’t really like him either; he doesn’t have a real super power”

James sits there nodding like this was something that he had seriously put some thought into.

Me: “If you had a super power what would it be

James: “I would punch animals in the face!”

Me: “Erm…..O.K but that isn’t really a good power to have, it doesn’t really help people”

James: “I know, but it’s because they annoy me”

Me: “Why do animals annoy you?”

James: “They’re not Bwannas”

Me: “Do you mean Piranhas?”

James: “No, Bwannas”

Me: “Iguanas”

James: “No, Bwannas Daddy!”

Me: “What on earth are Bwannas?”

James: “They’re animals that look like Bananas” (Obviously)

Me: “O.K, I don’t think they exist darling”

James: “They do, Google it”

Erm……O.K. So where do I begin?

Should I be concerned that my dear son thinks there is an animal ranking system and the ones that don’t fit the criteria should be punched in the face?

Should I question the fact that my youngest child believes there are animals made solely out bananas?

Or should I be more concerned that my almost 4 year old just told me that I should “Google” something?

Strangely the latter worries me the most!

By the way I Googled it........
