Christmas misunderstanding

Yesterday my nine year old daughter said to me" Daddy I want a Wii for Christmas", "Are you sure that's all you want I said", "yes "came the reply,"fine"  I  said " why not go now ,never hold it in ,the toilet's over there oh and happy Christmas ". There was I thinking I got away lightly when the grave oversight of mine came to light.Well misunderstandings happen all the time when you re a parent. Take the case of the missing bag of chocolates and sweets left over from Halloween. Again my daughter approached me"daddy  will you help me look for my gigantic bag of sweets ,I cant find them anywhere".Well not wanting her to suffer any longer we got to work straight away,searched upstairs ,downstairs and every nook and cranny we could think off.This all turned out to be futile.No trace of the sweets.I felt good being able to help her out with such a task .Mind you we were never going to find these sweets as I had devoured all of them in a chocolate and sweet binge a few days before this.This last piece of information is purely academic and should not concern the reader .As Oscar once said "I can resist anything except temptation"
