Mommie knows best.


Cup of Tea



One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me.



I was maybe 2 1/2 years old and had just recovered from an accident.
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 Mom 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 Mom 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... �'D id it ever occur to you

that the only place that baby can reach to get water is the toilet?'
