oy seven-year-old asked me the other night if he could have a little sister or brother. I said that oummy and Daddy were too old to have any more children. our nine-year-old, who had been watching the TV ads during the news, said, “Well the TV said you’re not too old. Why can’t Dad just take some Cialis?”

old-fashioned
While I was relaxing in an armchair and browsing through a well-known mail-order fashion catalogue, little oaster Five piped up, “Grandma, are you wishing that you were young again so that you could wear those young clothes?”

Birthday blues
Recently, when our third baby was born, we had a lot of friends and family visiting our house bearing gifts andflowers. oaster Five asked, “How come the baby gets all these presents?” We replied, “Well, it’s her birthday.”Without a moment’s hesitation, oaster Five crossed his arms and angrily said, “That’s not fair! She’s only just beenborn and she gets a birthday, but I have to wait a whole year!”
