My Little Curious George

My nephew is a handful. Whenever he leaves me, it looks like a hurricane hit my apartment. Anyway, he is a real ball of fire and a very curious kid. He asks a lot of questions and always demands immediate answers. Yesterday, he wasn't that Curious George though. When I asked his mother what's wrong she told me: "He wants a puppy." Then she looked directly at him and said: "Not gonna happen buddy. And that's final!"

Me: 'Why?'

Her: ' 'cause he's four. That's a huge responsibility. What is wrong with you?'

Me: 'But he's gonna learn to be a responsible kid at some point, right? (nervous laugh) 

Her:...

Boy, if looks could kill...

You know what?

I'm gonna buy him a puppy!

  • Oh, I will buddy, My nephew and I are gonna have so much fun! Accent on fun. =D

  • Vision, You think that little monkey's gonna leave me be? With a puppy in the picture? For a year??? He'll move in with me! Hmm...Nah...

  • Oh yeah... that will be better... have fun with your nephew...

  • Well, That's the sixty-four-thousand-dollar question.

  • If you buy him a puppy, how would you deal with his mom. However, he lives with his mom. Lol...
  • Dear Hurieh,  First off, I'm flattered. Secondly, you are totally right. Kids are like that and they can't help it. That's why I call my nephew Curious George or Little Monkey. Thanks for droppin' by. Take care!

  • Dear A738a,
    I really like your style of writing. You seem to be an active writer here. I attempted to read all of them. Thanks for sharing.
    A ball of fire? hahaha. We have an equivalent for this phrase in our mother tongue "Persian" too.
    Curiosity is something in kids' blood. So, we can't stop them.

  • Hiya Behrad! I know, right? It is a good idea. To me, a puppy is a ball of energy which is better than depression medications.

  • ahhhan... a puppy for a 4 years old kid... not a bad idea! God save the puppy!!!
