Little B and Simone were frolicking in the hot tub.
Little B pitched a blue starfish to the bottom of the tub. "Dive, Naan-naan!" he commanded.
Simone gave him the evil eye.
Little B sighed. "Pwease?"
Simone dove and gave the starfish to little B.
"Hey, there's a chipmunk racing around the base of your hot tub," called the neighbour behind them from his deck where he must have a perfect view of Simone's yard.
Simone smiled, knowing that the chipmunk was a regular visitor.
"That's a grandpa," said little B, pointing to the father of five children, aged three to 14.
"Uh, no," whispered Simone. "That's a Daddy."
Little B gave his mother a disbelieving glare. "It's a grandpa," he repeated forcefully.
"Hush!" Admonished Simone. "Its a daddy - he has a little boy who is the same age as you."
"It's a GRANDPA!" Yelled little B.
The neighbour disappeared into his house. Oh boy. Etiquette lessons for the three year old are next!
