    Default The Birthday Gift

    When my three-year-old son opened the birthday gift from his
    grandmother, he discovered a water pistol.
    He squealed with delight and headed for the nearest sink.
    I was not so pleased.
    I turned to Mum and said, "I'm surprised at you.
    Don't you remember how we used to drive you crazy with water guns?"




    Mum smiled and then replied....."I remember."
    Androgens Order
    Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
    The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.

    Grandkids are a parents reward for not killing your kids...

    Grandparent (grand′per′ənt, gran′-) n: One who believes your kids are perfect, even though they're sure you're not bringing them up right.

    Nannasecond (na na' sek und) n. The split second between a child's arrival at their grandmother's and the provision of lollies and treats. (from Richard Glovers Dags Dictionary - an ABC Sydney radio programme)
