And the challenge was set

60 small eggs hidden around the house and garden

2 small children of 2ish and 4ish

So ‘HE’ set off with the basket in hand

He hunted high and low, slowly collecting eggs

When he became stuck he came and asked a big person for help

Slowly but surely the basked filled up

‘SHE’ played for a while

she stumbled on a couple of eggs and added them to the basket as a token gesture

And then, when ‘HE’ wasn’t looking, ‘SHE’ picked up the almost full basked and just wandered off with it.

At least he’s going to learn these life lessons about women while he’s young!
