oy six-year-old granddaughter was visiting us recently. She saw me standing in the doorway of the kitchenclooking perplexed and asked what was the matter. I replied that I was just having a “senior moment”. “Shall I have senior moments?” she asked. “Goodness, no,” I replied. “Not for years and years.” The next day, her mother observed daughter coming out of her bedroom looking very puzzled and frowning. “What’s the matter?” she asked. Granddaughter replied, “Grandma is wrong, I’ve just had a senior moment!”

Lost for words
oy three-year-old grandson was sounding hoarse and looking a bit under the weather. “Have you got a cold, Tanekaha?” I asked him. “Nana, I lost my language” was the reply. It had me scrambling for the Maori-English dictionary and taking delight in my bilingual mokopuna!
