Daddy Needs A Girlfriend. What??!

So the conversation with my son started with us talking about how far things are, like downtown San Diego from the house. Then we moved on to how far the grandparents lives, first mine then my husband's. From there my son talked about traveling in space and how being an astronaut is cool and maybe he wants to do that, since he needs to go fast and have a powerful ship. (Didn't have the heart to tell him about NASA yet). So as he is working on his homework and we talk about books, shapes and other things he tells me daddy needs a girlfriend.

My son needs no prompting to make a unique statement.  One of the reasons why I started working out while he is gone.  A mom can only take so much "Mom I love the way your muscles shake."  Anyway I know my kid is saying things to see my reaction.  He's not stupid, he is afterall my kid, but he's a little to slick for (or trying to be) for his own good.

I remain call and tell him, daddy already has a girlfriend, me. My son says no, I'm the mom. I correct him again, that I am daddy's girlfriend and daddy is my boyfriend. Anything else and daddy is in trouble. We then started a game of Lego Star Wars III and after beating up the bad guys my son gives me the official word, "Yea mom you are a good girlfriend for daddy."

Good thing I'm good at playing video games....I think my job might be in jeopardy otherwise.
