Getting into mischief

Mum and Dad were sitting down to lunch one day after unpacking most of the groceries. Rustle rustle rustle behind us... what's madam into? Hmmm, helping herself to lunch it would appear... least it's healthy!

Another day... "oh bum" from the kitchen... "what?" yells Mum, "turns out I"m not having rice bubbles for breakfast after all" says Dad. "he he he" says Ruby...

When we were both lying on the couch sick with coughs and colds, there was deafening silence from the direction of our child. We finally managed to raise a fevered head to see what was going on, to find that our daughter had become all self-sufficient and helped herself to my uneaten mandarin from my lunch box, and was digging and biting her way into it. Seeing as she'd started, we let her carry on, and she managed to peel and eat about half of it before losing interest.

Don't be alarmed - we do actually feed her most days. She just gets tired of waiting for us to prepare it sometimes!
