When a three-year-old opened a birthday gift from his grandmother, he discovered a water pistol.

He squealed with delight and headed for the nearest sink.

His Mother was not so pleased. She turned to Grandmom and said:

— I’m surprised at you. Don’t you remember how we used to drive you crazy with water guns?

Grandmom smiled and then replied:

— I remember.
