Cup of Tea
One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me. Someone
had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it was one of
my favorite toys.
Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news when I
brought Daddy a little cup of 'tea', which was just water. After
several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mum came
home.
My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup
of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!' My Mum waited, and
sure enough, here I come down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy
and she watches him drink it up.
Then she says, (as only a mother would know.. :)
"Did it ever occur to you that the only place she can reach to get
water is the toilet?"
