We get that kind of comment too! But then, to counterbalance, we get ones like the other morning, when I'd just got out of bed, still in pyjamas, teeth unbrushed, etc., gave Hannah a kiss and she said, "Ooh Daddy, you smell lovely" - without a hint of irony. :) Nice story, Andy!!

Jessica loves colouring in outlines of pictures (horses, elephants, etc) drawn by her loving parents - well, usually Helen rather than me. The other day I drew an outline of a dog for her. May be not a masterpiece worthy of Rembrandt, but still a dog. Jessica (doubtfully) "Oh.... Thank you Daddy" Katherine (brightly) "Daddy, are you any better at pussy cats?" Well, that put me in my place...
