Brutal Honesty

Now that Oscar has begun to talk, I guess I should brace myself for a few embarrassing situations as he innocently points out observations that are usually tactfully avoided in adult conversation. He's showing early signs already but thankfully only at the expense of close family members. Oscar was fascinated by an ebony statue of a rather curvaceous naked tribeswoman at a friend's house last week. He toddled up to her, poked her in the belly and shouted 'DADDY!' very enthusiastically. My mum, according to Oscar, has a famous celebrity doppelganger. Oscar found a picture of the person concerned in the Radio Times and was most insistent that it must be her, jumping up and down and shouting 'Nana Nana Nana!'. I'm sure mum would have been very chuffed to be likened to Helen Mirren or Joanna Lumley. What a shame it was a photo of Bill Oddie.

This made me laugh out loud!! So much so that my husband came to find out what I was laughing at! I have all this to look forward to with Anna!
