At this point, my daughter looked at me with total admiration and
asked, Wow! How do you know all this stuff?"

"Uh," ....I was thinking quickly,

"All Mums know this stuff. It's on the Mummy Test. You have to know it, or
they don't let you be a Mummy."

We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but she was evidently
pondering this new information.

"Oh...I get it!" she beamed, "So if you don't pass the test you  have
to be the daddy.

" Exactly" I replied back with a big smile on my face and joy in my heart.
