Out of the mouths of babes....

My 2 1/2 year old daughter asked someone at the yard the other day "what are you doing?", the girl she asked duely answered and then said to my daughter "what are you doing?", to which my daughter replied in a fairly distainful tone "talking to you"!

Heaven help me as she grows up.
 
They don't need to be able to speak to embarrass you - my 9month old was sat in the trolley at the supermarket the other day craning round me to see the lady stood behind who was rather large and a bit unfortunate looking - and giggling his head off :o

To go back to the OP - my younger brother over 25 years ago now at about the same age as that little girl, spent the afternoon riding a friends shetland around a local show and informing all those that asked that if someone didn't buy it that day it was off to the knackers - pony was for sale but I don't THINK it was destined for a tin... it certainly sold soon afterwards anyway :p
 
When we lost the yard the chickens had to come to our house, much to the delight of our Staffy who decided his aim in life was to eat them all. He kept jumping out of the dog run and it was only a matter of time before he got in the coop so I got one of those vibrate collars on a remote control, it makes a loud beep and buzzes when you press the button. So collar arrived and I was putting batteries in it when my 8 year old asked what it was. "Does it electric shock him?" He asked. No, I said showing him it vibrating and beeping. "Oh that's a shame" he said "you could have put it on Billy's leg and electric shocked him every time he knocked a jump down"

He's clearly destined to be a pro showjumper lol
