My 3 year old GS said to his Mum the other night as he was going to bed "I love grandma (that's me!) a lot - I love her as big as......as big as.....(searches for the right word).....a camel!"
I hope he was referring to the extent of the emotion rather than the size of the grandma!
But his lovely words came at a good moment and brought good cheer.

The funniest thing is that the I'm waiting for the magic word routine is not new between SIL and GS, so I rather think GS was taking the piss! Wonderful!
Perhaps it's just that the story is so good it's worth telling twice.
Put it down to a pre-coffee moment! (it wasn't though!)
Bad eyesight? er, no.
Duh!
GS around 18mths asked for a drink DD gave him water he said 'no want rain, want milk'
