An Interesting Lunch…..

So we decided to go for a family lunch at Prezzo – all going swimmingly and after a couple of glasses of a lovely smooth Merlot, I decided to tell the children “Our Story”.  Ignoring the faint look of panic in Baldy’s eyes, I ploughed on explaining how, after Eldest Child, we desperately wanted more children but mummy’s eggs were useless (“like chicken eggs, mummy?”) and so after a very long time, we decided to go to Spain and a very lovely Spanish lady gave us some of her eggs (“did you have them scrambled?”).  Mummy travelled to Barcelona twice and on the second visit, had the two remaining frozen embryos put into mummy’s tummy….and hey presto!  Boy Twin and Girl Twin were made!!  “What’s an embryo?” – it’s what happens when the daddy’s sperm and the egg are mixed together and it grows into a baby.  It was at “what’s a sperm?” that the pizza’s thankfully arrived and the conversation moved on…..My hot flushes were in full swing by this point and I had to have another large Merlot.  As we were leaving the restaurant Boy Twin says “so I actually could be related to Lional Messi….??”.  You never know……you never know……
