My kids are as yet pretty young and have an age-gap of just three years. Though my daughter, littler a is just 16 months old, she shows signs of being spiriteed and having a temper, so she and my 4 and a half year old son do squabble from time to time. But yesterday night, little A, our son, said something amazing.
"We didn't have any fun before Puddi* came, na?"
My husband, A, said, "Of course we did. Why do you say that?"
Little A, "Because she's so cute and so fun to be around."
* Puddi is our unlovely nickname for littler a.
