and

have I mentioned that kids are contrary? I knew this one already though.

Yesterday they all looked at me as if I had grown a second head when I had eggs and toast and spinach for breakfast (there are chooks here, so isn't eggs for breakfast obvious?). Today, they all want eggs for breakfast. And (cover your eyes parents of said smalls) they are hoeing into my margarine. And even weirder they have all decided that they want their eggs soft boiled like I eat them.

which is, I guess, the point, isn't it? I find the mimicry of children a bit disconcerting. You are actively being like me? weird. Trying out various adult behaviours makes sense logically, just odd when applied to me.

anyway, need to leave for work. Leaving wookie in charge of the rest of morning. Hope everyone gets out alive!
