Never turn your back on a child. Not to clear breakfast, not to tidy up the wave of destruction he has caused across the house for turning your back only gives the opportunity to cause more trouble!
There I was stupidly thinking that I had removed all inappropriate items from the coffee table – the can of coke was on the mantelpiece, the bowl on the window ledge and the scissors on the table. Entering into the living room however I learnt how wrong I was. Alby had swiped the contents of the coffee table onto the floor and was sucking on something. Closer inspection showed that it was a piece of broken off spearmint chewing gum. So, it seems the claim that young children buy into adverts really is true – one year old and Alby is already convinced of the need pedal out by Orbit that chewing after eating is a necessity.
Woops.
