I remember vividly the first time the twiglets came home from nursery and started singing a song that I didn't know. They were about 19/20 months and hadn't been going there long - their speech was nothing like it is now, but they were clearly attempting to sing a song and I had no idea … Continue reading When You Can’t Protect Your Children From Other Influences
