They are cunning little so-and-so's, mneme, but cute with it.

just catching up - this is the second time I read this, and I laughed both times. Toddlers are wonderful aren't they..

jacenta
You are right there, jacenta.  We are scared to take her to the local service station, especially if a car is pulling into the pumps as we arrive.

johnmacnab...
Sounds like a lot of chaos for just checking the mail.

Thank you bel.  Any Canadian driver should be able to wave, do a donut, and a pirouette on icy roads without losing control - so I'm told.

In regard to the woman....
It's never our own fault is it????

If one can't wave and control their car at the same time that is not your fault.  Sounds to me like lack of control of the car and icy conditions were the bigger problem.  What an unpleasant woman!

Sigh!  And I wouldn't dare blame my granddaughter - my life wouldn't be worth living.

Reminds me of a Soft Cell song
"Say hello and wave goodbye"

I think in this case cutie pie was waving bye byeee.  The mailbox 'thing' had me aghast when I came here.  Where I came from, the front doors had letter boxes.  Here the rural areas have mailboxes at the side of the road so that the mailman can stay in his vehicle and deliver letters.  Across the road from us, are ours and a next door neighbour's box and the two homes across from us...and if you don't take turns clearing the snow away from your box, you get no mail.  Simplicity itself.

What's the mailbox doing across the street, anyhow?
In icy conditions, you'd think they'd keep their hands on the wheel, even if a little cutie is by the side of the road waving hello.

LOL, Whacky.  She was certainly entertained.  She kept pointing out onto the road and asking "More?"

LOL, Carl.  I was thinking - Danger Little Cutie Ahead.

Not your fault at all. At least she was entertained!
That is the most important thing.

Now what sort of traffic warning sign does this merit?
"Watch Children AND The Road"?

It was hilarious, TAPS. Absolutely hilarious.  Nobody was hurt unless you count the red faces (especially the cop's).

But of course, kingmi - she takes after her Mother and her Grandmother.  Her Father and I just shrug at each other and keep our mouths zipped shut.
