Kids from Sydney.

I recently babysat a 3-year-old boy and a 6-year old girl, absolute gems from Australia.

The children were engrossed in a movie when the doorbell rang. I went to the door and came back with a pizza that had been ordered for them earlier. The boy asked me who was at the door. I explained that a delivery man had brought us pizza for dinner.

“Well, that’s very kind of him, don’t you think?” the boy said, not taking his eyes off the screen.

We were talking about the kids’ birthdays. I found out that the boy would turn 4 in several months. His sister moaned.

“I don’t want him to get one more. Every time he gets one more he gets even cheekier!”
