Ahoy Matey, A Pirate’s Life For Me

Mr. J & Mr. G have become pirate obsessed.   Treasure seek­ing, sword wield­ing, scal­ly­wags on the open seas. 

At the zoo the other day, they played pirates with all the gusto that a child could.  Other chil­dren were soon caught up in the excite­ment of the tall tale of Pirate Black­beard.  I’m not sure their moth­ers were as excited.

Over din­ner, Mr. G referred to every­one as Matey & and wanted to be talked to only in pirate lan­guage. How­ever, then talk turned to won­der­ing what a poop deck was & gig­gles soon made any talk­ing almost impossible.

Fri­day at Mamacita & D-man’s well vis­its tongue depres­sors became pirate swords.  The table in the room almost became the plank.  That one I was not so excited about.

And today after get­ting to sleep in I awoke to see this mass chaos of open Lego bins:

All so that this could be built.  I was expect­ing some­thing big­ger, espe­cially after see­ing all the small bins open.  Accord­ing to the boys these are skele­ton space­ship pirates.

I’m expect­ing that today will be filled with more pirate adven­tures, arghh me matey!
