Something I never thought I would need to do

As a parent I have found myself doing things I never used to do, or even things I thought I would never do.
For example the phrase ‘Just a minute’ was never part of my vocabulary; now it’s something I seem to utter several times a day.
I used to think that parents eating their children’s left-over food was disgusting; now I do it all the time.
And I certainly never thought I would be telling my children to eat more chocolate! But here we are in July and there are still half-eaten Easter eggs lying about. I think this one actually has a cobweb inside the box!
We deliberately didn’t get them too much chocolate this year, opting for quality over quantity, but there is still some left. I have been wondering whether I should eat some but then they would be sure to notice!

If they notice, blame the chocolate fairy
