When our second child was on the way, my wife and I attended a pre-birth class aimed at couples who had already had at least one child. The instructor raised the issue of breaking the news to the older child. It went like this:
“Some parents,” she said, “tell the older child, ‘We love you so much we decided to bring another child into this family.’ But think about that. Ladies, what if your husband came home one day and said, ‘Honey, I love you so much I decided to bring home another wife.'”
One of the women spoke up immediately. “Does she cook?”

Thursday’s Quizzler is……….
(Thing 1)
I, at the start, am old
Many centuries I’ve been told
Used by the Greeks
For counting techniques
After things were bought and sold
Later is when I became known
As an infinite figure, when shown
You’ve counted my spaces
Over two billion places
And still, my amount is unknown
(Thing 2)
I, too, am not young
I’m almost as old as Thing 1
I’m just a frog
On the natural log
But I can make counting fun
(Thing 1 and Thing 2)
When you combine us two
In the order of Thing 1 and Thing 2
We’ll be a baked treat
That’s painful to beat
Whether cherry, peach, or aloo
