A friend recently had a baby and I was sharing ‘birth stories’ with another friend. There’s a slightly macabre satisfaction in explaining how bad, or not, it really was…
Anyway, part way through, my son asks why we paid more for his sister than for him.
This was greeted with stunned silence – what on earth was he was talking about?
It became apparent on further questioning.
She was 9 pounds and he was only 7 pounds.
More expensive indeed…
