Kate emerges from her room, all forlorn.
"Mummy", she complains, "My sleeping and my woke up. The children bugged me."
I know immediately that this is not true because all the other children in the house have been in the living room with me. But I want to see where this leads.
Me: Which children, Katie?
Kate: Emily and Jenna.
M: How did they bug you?
K: They sprinkled and put [unintelligible thing] on my face.
M: They put what on your face?
K: Sprinkles and dough!
M: Who put dough on your face?
K: Emily and Jenna. And squirt glue on my face.
M: My goodness. What happened next?
K: My came out and showed Mummy.
M: And what did Mummy say?
K: (pulling my ear close to her mouth so she can whisper) Wash it off!
Barely two, and already planning her first book.
