Morning all, had an interesting day with my now graduated 5 year old who now clearly knows more than we do after a nights sleep.
So, we were out in the car and Yasmin says “cars are Very safe Daddy” .
“Well” I replied, “they are, but they can also be dangerous and we have to watch out for other people in cars, in case they are silly and cause an accident”.
Then I added, “sometimes it’s good not to talk about things as it could cause them to happen. That’s called tempting fate”
“Yes “Daddy, said Yasmin “Tenting feet isn’t good”
My own daughter can’t understand my Scottish accent!
As a result I will be speaking Africaans from now on which could come in handy tonight!
