"I'm sorry, I can't get the stars for you because they're too far away"
For every thing that I read and think 'thank goodness I don't have to deal with health visitors judging me and not understanding maths when I am far too tired and annoyed to explain it to them and sick of that being my job' there is some little thing like this that makes me think: how mind-bogglingly, heart-touchingly tender to have a tiny little person tagging round with you who honestly believes you can fetch down the stars for them, and knows that you would if you could.
