'I'm a Busy Man': 4-Year-Old Goes Over His Lengthy To-Do List

  • A four-year-old in Northern Ireland had quite a to-do list on October 24. Caroline O’Neill recorded this video of her imaginative son Darragh going over everything he had planned for the day - only one day after he got his driver’s license, he said.
    O’Neill told Storyful her son is a “very busy man,” as the lad notes in the video.
    “He loves to work hard and farm the land with his brother and daddy and grandas,” she said. “He is a hardworking wee boy.”
    In the video Darragh can be heard going through the impressive pretend list, which includes picking up the keys to the car he just bought, putting in tiles in the house he’s building, cleaning windows, putting up barbed wire, cutting sheep, and much more.

    Even the way he looks out the window as he's thinking about EVERYTHING he has to to today kills me! I also love the way he segues into what he wants to have for dinner and decides to wrap it up with a nice shower. The downside of this video was I showed my wife who now thinks I'm a lazy piece of *$@& because I can't accomplish half of what this 4-year-old can in a day.

    My son used to do something similar to this when he was about 4 years old. He would suddenly appear in a huge cowboy hat and start telling me about his horses and living on a ranch. He told me his name was Johnny West and that he had a wife and two children. I'd offer him a cup of coffee which was one third coffee and topped up with milk and we'd chat. After he drank his fill he would say that he had to leave. Suddenly, my son would appear and I'd say, "You've just missed him again. Johnny West was here drinking coffee." That went on for about a year. It was a lot of fun for me. I'd ask him questions about his ranch. Their thoughts are so interesting at that age. He'd only show up now and then.

    • @bipinmistry3590

      Listening to this little boy and the story about your son makes me think about reincarnation. I am convinced that many children below the age of 5 can somewhat recall their pass lives, sometimes with names of people and places we could be checked out. Obviously the child is innocent and not fabricating stories , he is literally taking about his experiences, and of course as cynical adults we think is cute, which indeed it is, but perhaps we should not just dismiss it off as silliness. Just my thoughts. He is a lovely lad, but if I were his parent, I would check a few things out including Roman Macasky actually exists or existed in that location. 👍👌

When do you find the time to do all that? and she said, “ well, you know at night when you are sleeping in bed, and you think that I’m sleeping there beside you?” ( she slept with me at the time)...and I said yes? and she said “ well, I’m really not, I’m out stringing all the tennis racquets.” We didn’t play tennis ourselves, or even have racquets, I’ve absolutely no idea what prompted that story, but 25 years later it still makes me laugh.

Even when she got to her teens, when a parent/teacher interview revealed her to be a highly gifted mathematician ( who knew?), and a gifted operatic singer who had taught herself all the greatest arias by watching Sumi Jo, and practising of an afternoon after school before the rest of us came home from work. I used to look at her and think ‘whose child are you?’. I hope this little fellow continues to bring as much joy to his family as my daughter has to mine.

    At birth, he cut his own cord, installed a new heart machine, cemented the walkway, and cleared out the wee drains with his baby hands before he got some milk and went to bed.

    I can't believe it. This adorable little man is EXACTLY my now grown son at that age!! Everyday, he was a very busy little man - lists of construction and repair and fixing etc "jobs" he had to tend to, rain or shine. This video warms my heart. What a wonderful memory you now have to be able to watch and hear him when he's grown. He's precious. God bless!!
