Food handling

Thumper came in our bedroom at some horribly early hour this morning: "Can I have some Nutrigrain? I've had my breakfast."

We have a rule that the kids have to eat a 'proper' breakfast, like weetbix or porridge, before they can have junk like Nutrigrain.

Me (sleepily): Yes.

Thumper: Can I use my hands? I haven't picked my nose.

Postscript: About an hour later Thumper called out, "I'm going to have breakfast now". Cheeky child hadn't actually had her weetbix first.

Measuring space-time

BallFiend: Mum, are light years measures of time or length?

That's my boy.
