FAVOURITES
People occasionally ask me if we have favourite child. It's a bit of an unfair question really because even if you did, you shouldn't favour one over the other. I mean let's look at it this way:
Exhibit A
Here is this cute 6 year old boy who can whine as well as any woman when he is ill (or pretending to be), hurt or doesn't get his way. He is also very messy, although occasionally lapses into a fit of tidiness, and pretends not to listen to you when you ask him to do something. He can also watch 3 DVDs in a row if you don't manage him and survive on a daily diet meal of biscuits and McDonald's. The young boy also has a mad habit of repeatly running from the living room and jumping on the bed in the bedroom. He can also take many obscure shots with the digital camera if you let him.
