I was desperate for my Mummy to look at me this afternoon but she just wouldn't do it. I know why. It was because I had covered my whole face with blue water colour paint. I started with the cheeks, moved on to the lips, then painted big strips over each eye. I looked great, I know I did
AND my Mummy knew I did too only she wouldn't look at me. Why do parents do that ignoring thing? It may work for dogs '
only give praise for good behaviour and always ignore bad' but what I had done wasn't bad it was creative and inventive and was surely worthy of some sort of
smirk. Tomorrow I will try and make Mummy crack. I know she is only moments away from laughing. Perhaps if I paint my little sisters face instead of mine and give her a more professional make-up application she will not only laugh but see my awakening talent too.
