Embarrassing

"Mummy? Why do some of the girls call their granny Mummy?" CS asked outside the door of pre-school.
"Well darling, if they call her Mummy maybe she is their Mummy? Don't you think?" Mrs Yoastie feeling slightly worried that this was overheard.
"No! That's not their Mummy! She looks like a Granny." CS replies full volume with half suppressed laughter.

It is at moments like this that I regret teaching them English.
