You know I'd rather be laying a few bricks for a pittance in a temperature of 2 degrees celsius with a keen north wind than be involved in child rearing.
I was able to observe closely part of a typical day for Mother and toddler.
As far as I could make out Mrs G. does an excellent job, making light of things that could bring a less patient individual to the edge of reason.
She always responds to the as yet incoherent pleas of the youngster without a trace of annoyance and takes the time to play with plastic blocks and the like.
However now and then the gurning would start up again, as if it was basic to the human condition and ever present, just below the surface.
