Cup of Tea
Moms will truly appreciate this one....
Cup of Tea
One day my mother was out and my dad was in
charge of
me.
I was maybe 2 1/2 years old and had just
recovered from
an accident.
Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a
get-well
gift and it was one of my favorite toys.
Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the
evening
news when I brought Daddy a little cup of 'tea',
which
was just water. After several cups of tea and
lots of
praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came home.
My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch
me
bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the
cutest
thing!' My Mom waited, and sure enough, here I
come
down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy and she
watches him drink it up.
Then she says, (as only a mother would know...
'Did it ever occur to you that the only place she
can
reach to get water is the toilet?'
