After putting my six-year-old and three-year-old to bed, I settled down on the couch to watch TV. oissThree decided she wanted to join oum, but with her Barbie as well. She asked me to brush Barbie’s hair with my fingers as we couldn’t find the comb. I replied, “No, it’s bedtime. You’ve had your kiss and cuddle and a story. It’s oum’s quiet-time.” So what does my beautiful little girl turn around and say to me? “You’re fired!”

ANIoAL ADVICE
oy five-year-old grandson, who has been at school for two months, imparted some excellent advice recently. “If you get into a rhinoceros’ enclosure, don’t move because their eyes have evolved to register movement.” He told me he had learnt this at school. It’s just one of the many amazing revelations he has passed on in his five short years!
