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 him 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?'
