Frankly, I’m Not Sure What Was Going On
Ethan: When you dance, you should use your arms more so you don’t look like a dancing fish.
Gideon: I like fish.
Ethan: But you don’t want to dance like one.
Gideon: Yes I do.
Ethan: Okay, that’s it for the dance part of our program. Now on to the fighting! Gideon, you take two lightsabers and Aurora, you stand very still so he won’t hurt you. No Aurora, you have to stand still. Stand still. Aurora, we’re done dancing, it’s time for you to stand still so Gideon can slice you up. Stand still……..stand still……..stand still. Okay, Gideon, give her one of your light sabers and you two can fight each other instead.
Gideon: I want to bake cookies!
Ethan: Now on to the cooking part of our show. Gideon, here are your ingredients. *hands Gideon an empty bucket* Make sure you mix them up good because I’ll be counting the chips in all the cookies.
Gideon: I’m using raisins.
Ethan: Okay, I’ll count the raisins.
Gideon: *points to toy box* This is the oven. Don’t touch it, it’s hot! GET AWAY FROM THE OVEN OR IT WILL BURN YOU!
Ethan: Now lets play with our guys.
Gideon: I’m still cooking.
Ethan: You can play with guys while you wait for the timer to beep.
Gideon: I’M STILL COOKING!
Ethan: But the cookies will be in the oven FOREVER!
Gideon: No they won’t. Beep! Cookies are done! Mmmmmm, they’re delicious!
I could go on, but it doesn’t get any less strange. At least they left me in peace to get my stuff on the computer done.
Wow! Dancing, cookies, fish, arm movements and a bucket…all in the same post.
