One day while visiting my grandparents, my grandmother had to step out, and my grandfather was in charge of me. I was about 2 1/2 years old and I had just received a miniature tea set as a gift. It quickly became my favorite toy.

Grandpa was in the family room watching tv when I brought him a little cup of tea (which was just water). After several cups of tea and lots of praise from Grandpa for making such a yummy cup of tea, my grandmother came home.

Grandpa made her wait in the hall to watch me bring him another cup of tea, because it was “just the cutest thing!” Grandma waited, and sure enough I slowly appeared, carefully carrying another cup of tea for Grandpa.

Grandma watched him drink it up, then said “Did it ever occur to you that the only place she can reach to get water is the toilet?”
