Like a fool I believed her; lifted her off the potty; let her run free.
I didn’t find it until the next day, although I had sniffed round the house like a bloodhound.
‘No pee pee, mama.’
Like a fool I believed her; lifted her off her potty; let her run free.
I slipped on it when I went in to make my naptime cuppa. My arm still hurts in the winter.
‘There’s no blood, ma; he didn’t cut that deep.’
But I am nobody’s fool, and I was there to catch her when she fell.
