Today's Little Treat

There's a photo doing the rounds on Facebook at the moment. Some company have created t-shirts for three siblings. I don't wish to promote them, nor would I ever suggest that my children wore them, but I do agree with the sentiment, which basically goes along the lines of: Oldest child makes the rules, middle child is the reason we have rules and youngest child knows that the rules don't apply.

I may have mentioned some or all of the following before in relation to Eddie:

• Eddie doesn't understand consequences
• The word 'no' is something of an enigma when he is on the receiving end of it (though definite when he delivers it)
• He can go from grinning cutie to fiendish horror quicker than a new Porsche gets to 60mph.

So, what was today's little treat for mummy?

Pushing the 'Emergency Stop' button on the supermarket trolley escalator.

Sigh. As you were.
