Tea with a Toddler
One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me and my
brother who is four years older than I
am.
I was maybe 1 and a half years old and had just
recovered from an accident in which my arm had been broken among
other injuries.
Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it
was one of my favorites toys.
Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the
evening news and my brother was playing nearby in the living room
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 says,
'Did it ever occur to you that the only place
that baby can reach to get water is the
toilet??'
