Useful Life Skills

Any of you that have seen Joseph over the past few months know that Koala is his constant companion. Koala is usually carried about in the crook of Joseph's elbow- so much so that the pressure of Joseph's arm around her (Koala is a girl, sometimes called Libby) has pushed the stuffing both upwards and downwards so that Koala has an abnormally big head, very floppy neck, and huge tummy. I think we're getting to the point where a back up Koala may be required- if anyone is heading to Currumbin Bird Sanctuary let me know- I might just have a secret mission for you....

Anyway, Koala gets dirty and smells like you wouldn't believe and won't survive too many more spins through the washing machine so measures have been taken of late to keep Koala clean ie. 'Koala doesn't want to play in the sandpit today, she might stay in bed for a rest' etc. So Grandma decides to jump on this 'Keep Koala Clean' bandwagon, so she taught Joseph the following.....




....how to eat your porridge and carefully place your bib over Koala's head so that it doesn't spill on her. Yes, apparently these are the types of life lessons that Grandma's like to impart, not useful skills like how to not bring your toys to the dinner table.....
