Watching a story on 60 minutes about the lady who is receiving a 2nd liver transplant, after already being given one and then returnig to heroin, Sam had some questions.


1. Are people's eyes normally green?


2. If you take drugs, do you die?

Samism Number 35


Sam: "Mum, you really are a great mum"


Me: "I wasn't so great yesterday when I breathed in your face"


Sam: "Oh that's right, it smelt like, what's the word for it again? That's right, a sewer"

Samism Number 34


After surgery yesterday, Sam wanted some eclipse mints (his favourite). Usually he breathes in my face to show me how "refreshing" they are. He gave me one and I breathed in his face (as he requested)




Sam: "Eww, that stinks, I can still smell your old breath behind it.



Note to self - brush more.

Samism Number 33


Today we had to meet with the pre-admission doctor to get ready for Sam's operation on Tuesday to remove the wires in his broken arm. The doctor asked me a series of questions before turning to Sam and saying:



Doctor: "Now Sam, I have a very important question for you that I have to ask every patient. Do you Smoke?" He chuckles.


Sam: (Totally straight faced) "Not anymore"


Doctor: "Not anymore?"


Sam: "Nope, as far as I'm concerned, now they're the devil in disguise"

Samism Number 32


Following on from yesterdays Samism, I told Jack, the 3 year old, I would drop him off somewhere.


Sam: "Drop him off at Mike and Julies" (Our neighbours)


Me: "No, it's nice there, if he doesn't stop it, I'll be dropping him somewhere not fun"


Sam: "Drop him off at Woodridge then"

PS - I have never said a bad word about Woodridge so clearly he has picked this up from the news? Or school?

I picked up the two boys from school. Almost immediately they started arguing. I turned to them and said:


"Keep it up and I'll stop this car and you boys can walk home"


Jack, the three year old asked me to stop the car at the next red light so he could get out and start walking.


Sam: "You're not a brainiac are you Mum?"

Samism Number 23


Sam broke his arm yesterday - fell off the Monkey Bars. Of course there were Samisms - Many, but this one stands out the most.

We were discussing his operation and the fact he would be asleep when they did it.

Sam: "How will they put me to sleep?"

Me: "They will give you some drugs"

Sam: "No! You keep telling me to study hard and stay off drugs and then you change your mind?"
