Snippets

Overheard:

Keira and her father are playing a board game together; my daughter suddenly pipes up, “No daddy, I just want to do it the way I want to do it.”

The other morning the children were playing in Riley’s bed. Keira suddenly says, “The bed’s wet!”

I then discovered Riley’s nappy must have leaked during the night through the sheet and mattress.

“Oh, bugger!” I said, peeling off the linen.

“Bugger had nothing to do with it – it was RILEY,” says my daughter.

Gee, thanks, honey.

[Remember this word has gotten me into trouble before.]
