12th October, 2009 - Granny!

I am very lucky to have my in-laws. My Significant Other and I live near to her parents, and they provide all of the child-care we could ever want. I am eternally grateful to them - it’s the best arrangement for our kids that we could possibly want.

I am particularly fond of my father-in-law’s sense of humour which is now creeping into my children’s psyche. For example, recently when reading a book about a gorilla who goes to bed with a zookeeper (Children’s books are weird!), both of the round-faced people started giggling uncontrollably as they pointed to the gorilla and said through hysterical laughter: “Granny!!! Granny!!!”
