Pirates and Hos

Last summer I taught best friend's 3 year oldson how to slide down the sort-of banister on their stairs. "Sort-of" meaning it's sort of an extention of the wall with a flat place great for sliding. When sliding down he'd yell out silly things like "Purple Dinosaur!" or "CominAtCha!" or something. So now, every time I visit home we play that game. It's always entertaining to get him to say weird stuff rather than a simple "whoo hoo" or "here I come!"

Today's phrase was "Yo Ho Ho". He yelled it a few times before we left to go out, and had forgotten the phrase when we came back, opting instead to call out "Rain go away!" as he slid.
He yelled out "-----* LOOK at me!!!" from the hall

I turned to him and said "I'm not looking until you say 'yo ho ho' again" before turning my back once more.

Seconds later, I heard the indistinguishable vrrp of a bare thigh sticking to wood and a small voice cried out:

"Yo Yo Ho!"
