things that indicate the sort of parenting you are acheiving #472

My son can mimic, and does frequently, the way I say 'oh dear!'. It's my catchall phrase when he falls over/bumps his head/breaks a bone/severs a limb.

But do you have any idea how annoying it is to be carrying 3 plates, 2 glasses and some cutlery back to the kitchen, trip over a cat, stand on some duplo and land dans le derriere and to hear 'oh dear!' coming from the other room?!!
