Calling my brother in Canada the other night, I was shoved off onto my delightful 6 year old niece. *waves to Bootsy*
Uber: Hello Bootsy.
Boo: Hi, Auntie Uber
Uber: You had a birthday recently didn’t you Bootsy?
Boo: Yes
Uber: And how old are you now?
Boo: Six
Uber: Wow! That’s kinda old! So! Do you have a job yet?
Boo: *chuckles* No!
Uber: Why not? That’s kinda lazy, don’t you think?
Boo: I am only six years old!
Uber:Well, THAT’S no excuse! What do you do ALL day, as you are NOT working?
Boo: I go to school.
*When her older sister went to school and she was jealous, her parents LIED to her and told her daycare WAS school.I’m not sure if they ever revealed to her that they were BIG, FAT LIARS but nevermind…..
Uber: School or day care?
Boo: Both. First I go to daycare, then school then back to day care blah blah blah
Uber:Wow ! I guess you are too busy to have a job, aren’t you?
Boo: Yes (succinct, not like me)
Uber: But next year you will be in Grade 1 and not be going to day care right?
Boo: Right
Uber: Then you will have time for an after school JOB!
Boo: -silence-
Uber: So how old is Naomi now?
Boo: ten
Uber: Wow that must be nice to have an older sister. Does SHE have a job yet?
Boo: No
Uber: So, does Ally ( her younger sister) have a job?
Boo: SHE’S ONLY ONE!!!!
Uber: Well, I guess SHE can be forgiven then……..
Background talking….
Boo: Daddy, Auntie Uber says I have to get a job! Is she serious?
Boo’s Daddy: No, she’s playing with you. I told you she is the funny one in the family - keep talking to her.
Boo: Hi Auntie Uber.
Uber: Yeah, I was just funning you about a job. So, it’s my birthday soon! Have you bought me a present yet?
Boo: I don’t have ANY money……
Uber: You see, now if you had a job………….
Boo: Bye Auntie Uber. I am putting you back to daddy now!!!!
* Boy they learn fast!

Why don't YOU get a job and stop talking to that kid like she's a retard?? She'll be changing your diapers in a few years, you know!
Now watch out Uber
You are displaying a severely tender family disposition.
Your reputation could well be damaged.
Nice to see Aunty Uber
Dyck-If she took my wise career advice, she could HIRE someone to do that for her- ergo, I am helping her!
Clyde- Projecting any niceness on me at all is blog suicide. :)
I love kids, but couldn't eat a whole on.
oh that was precious uber...how entertaining...i love doing that sort of thing with my "adopted" neice and nephew...i am practicing for my brother's son to be old enough...muahhhh
it's good to have the ability to mess about with children's minds!
Daisy- Somone has to fuck them up, it would be remiss of me to leave it all to the parents.
i agree uber...what are we good for if not to fuck up the lives of youth present in our life? i always used smart ass parenting with mine and it seemed to work...at least my son thinks about things before he goes and fucks up...if he would only remember the whole lesson prior to the actions he would be a lot better...however, he still holds to the information i gave him regarding his sex life...i told him every time he was with a woman he was making my grandbaby...he told me that has fucked him up for years...:) he has no idea how happy that made his mom...and how many smiles i have gotten just thinking of it...:)
daisy- hahahahahaha! That is fantastic birth control. You are such a great parent! Adopt me!
Uber,
Your neice can always work in a sweat factory in Malaysia. I hear they get at least one meal a day. ;D
I love kids. Really.
Lovely. If you don't lie to human kiddies, you're not preparing them for the real world.
Alexys- First she would have to earn her fare.But then the competition would be gruesome over there. I was thinking small to start like Mc Donald's.
Gorilla- Exactly! I was only being benevolent, my good deeds are always misconstrued!
Heheheh...! That's very funny! Yes, she's learning...LOL!
Eve- yes, learning to fob off her Auntie.:)
