oy six-year-old red-headed granddaughter arrived at the breakfast table one morning and happily announced to us that she was proud to be a “ginga”. “Do you know what, Nana?” she said. “When I grow up, I’m going to be a ginger nut!” I think that could very well come true – she’s spicy and spirited!

Hot stuff
our seven-year-old overheard us debating the pros and cons of burial or cremation. He came to me afterwardsand said he was concerned that his dad wanted to be “incinerated”. I had visions of Dad in the garden incinerator with his legs hanging over the sides!

Pro choice
I’m pregnant and my friend’s daughter asked me, “What are you having?” I replied, “I don’t know.” The little girlthen said, “Haven’t you decided yet?”

A-moo-sing tale
We took our three-year-old son to watch the cows being milked. He seemed most impressed until he asked,”Which one’s got the chocolate milk?”*
