A little girl approaches her mother with a curious look on her face. “Mummy, when you were away at work, a strange lady came around,” she says in excitement. Eager to hear more, her mother kindly responds, “Not now, my dear. Let’s wait until Daddy gets home.”

As the family gathers together with anticipation, the mother asks the little girl to continue her story. “Well dear, tell us about Daddy and the strange lady.” The father begins to speak, but the mother interrupts, saying, “You keep quiet, dear. I’ll be speaking to my attorney in the morning. Please, carry on.”

With innocence in her voice, the little girl shares her adventurous tale. “Well, Daddy told me to stay downstairs while they went upstairs. But I couldn’t resist, so I followed them without Daddy noticing. And guess what I saw? I saw them hugging and kissing at the top of the stairs.”

Unable to contain her admiration, the mother exclaims, “Clever girl! What could you see through the keyhole?” The little girl excitedly shares, “I saw them hugging and kissing some more. And then they started taking each other’s clothes off. They carried on until they had nothing on. And finally, the lady got on the bed, and Daddy got on top of her.”

Curiosity piqued, the mother eagerly asks, “And then what happened, my dear?” Without hesitation, the little girl confidently replies, “Then they did what you and Uncle Jack did when Daddy was in Vancouver last year.”

This innocent revelation fills the room with a mix of emotions. It serves as a reminder of how children perceive the world around them, with an unparalleled purity and honesty. It also highlights the importance of open communication within families, allowing for understanding, growth, and connection across generations.
