Well, mother announced two left. Three ashen faces in the mirror. How will Mum and Dad decide?
Dad speaks - "The next one to talk doesn't get one".
Silence. Blessed silence.
For five miles. Even after we pulled up to drop 7yo at his drama class. He started to exit the car with a questioning look - but was still silent. Only baby 1yo had made any noise at all.
I answered his unspoken question - "5yo doesn't get one!".
"Why?!?!?" they all chorused now that the peace was broken. "Because I saw you hit 11yo in the face and glasses to get a reaction!" Her plan failed.
Kids. You've got to keep an eye on them - the rear-view mirror helps.
