When kids say the worst things!
Good morning – hope you all enjoyed the sun! It's a case of normal service resuming today. Back under the bed covers tonight!
Personally had a good few days but came crashing back down to earth when my son (he's 3) told me he wouldn't give me a hug because, I quote, "you've been a b*****d all day".
In my defence, he has no idea what it means but knows he shouldn't be saying it. I was perfectly nice to him all day. I blame his aunt for her potty mouth. I tried my best not to give him the reaction he desired....
For my candour, I'd be keen for you to make me feel better - surely you have a child who has said some outrageous stuff. I would LOVE to hear it. I will not publish it, unless of course there's so much we could make an article from it. Just hit the reply button.
Anyway, on with the news..
