Baby recipe
February 22, 2013
D: Are you going to have another baby?
Me: Not at the moment.
D: Why? I really want a brother or a sister – please!
Me: It takes some special ingredients to make a baby.
D: Oh yes – I remember! If you really want a baby you have to write a list to Santa, and if you REALLY want one then he gives one to you. There’s two presents that go through the keyhole. One’s a nut and one’s an egg. You eat the egg and the nut – no it’s a seed – and they mix together and grow and that’s how you get kids and childs and babies. So can you write to Santa?
Me: Hmmmm.
