Je ne suis pas un écureuil

The other day I had to find CU-1. He was so deeply engrossed in his GameBoy game that I thought he'd have the bends coming back up.

"Repeat after me "Je ne suis pas un écureuil."

"Quoi maman?"

"Je ne suis pas un écureuil."

A slow gin grin crawls across his face. His dimple drills into his cheek as he shuffles to the bathroom and picks up his clothes behind the door.

When nagging a child, there is room for humor.
