Tea Party with Dad

Mom was out for a few hours and Dad was in charge. Maria, age two and a half, was playing with one of her favorite toys, her tea set. Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news while cute little Maria brought him a tiny tea cup filled with water. After several "cups of tea" and lots of praise for such yummy tea, Mom came home.

Dad said to her, “Honey, wait right here and watch what Maria is doing. It’s the cutest thing!” Mom waited and sure enough, Maria came down the hall with another cup of tea for Daddy and she watched him playfully drink it all up.

Then Mom said, “Sweetheart, did it ever occur to you that the only place that Maria can reach to get water is the toilet?” Mothers know!
