so yesterday i was babysitting five kids under the age of nine (i know, i know, i'm practically jesus. shhh.) and one of them was an 8 year old boy called Corben. basically, he developed a huge crush on me after i told him i liked star trek and dragons, and he kept hitting on me the entire time and it was hilarious and also adorable.
alana (his six year old sister): oh wow, you're so good at lego. you're magical.
corben: yeah, lizzy's so magical that she makes people fall in love with her and wish that they were older so that tHEY COULD MARRY HER FOREVER
alana: CORBEN THAT IS DISGUSTING, I AM DISGUSTED WITH YOU.

corben: when we get married can we have a cat? i like cats.
me: what
alana: corben i'm never talking to you again

corben: lizzy, do you like cocoa pops?
me: yeah, but--
corben: i'll get you three bowls.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
me: okay, goodnight you guys.
corben: mum usually gives us a cuddle before we go to sleep.
alana: no she doesn--
corben: shHHhHhHH.
me: no.
corben: not even a little cuddle?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
me: why are you out of bed?
corben: do you want to read my book about dragons
me: no, go back to bed
corben: i'll read it to you if you want
