Number 2 is adorably cute, to the point that if she wakes up in
the night you can hear her calling "Mummy. Daddy, Cuddle?" the whole
learning new words is wonderful as a parent, heart melting, tear to the eye
stuff.
But it's Number 1
where we find most fun, her stubborn I’m always right streak makes
for some interesting conversations. As a two year old her Great Uncle Rodger
was simply known as "Uncle Bugger" while last Christmas as a three
year old, she kept asking to open her "African Lavender" cue puzzled
looks and full on screaming tantrum when everyone looked puzzled till we worked
out she was asking for her Advent Calendar.
It truly is amazing what kids soak up through osmosis…
Recently
when discussing the human body with her school teacher Aunt that the heart
was being discussed.
Aunt “the heart
keeps you alive”
Number 1 “what happens
when it stops?”
Aunt “well you die
and then you go off to heaven”
Number 1 “Great Nans heart
stopped and now she’s in heaven. Heaven is a very long way away. It’s so far
away that we can’t go and see her anymore… it’s nearly as far away as Auntie
Did lives”
Auntie Did actually lives in Ware less than 10 miles away, but my
mother in Law
is always moaning about how far the drive is from Barnet.
