At about 7:30 I heard a key turn in our front door – Nanny G is back! The kids went thumping downstairs screeching with joy and even the dog pawed at the bedroom door trying to get to see her. It is amazing what one day of Daddy Day Care can do.
With school due to restart, the kids have been hyper all day. In Sophia’s case this has meant enhancing her bossiness:
“Dad, I have a deal for you”
“Really? What is it?”
“You stop eating sugar on your cereal because it’s bad for you.”
“That sounds more like an instruction than an offer.”
“Yes, because we are princesses of the house. And of the whole world.”
“Er, Ok.”
“Now please stop talking.”
