My son (10): ‘Mama, what’s wrong?’
Me: ‘I cannot log in to my google account..’
He: ‘I’ve read about the age limit there.. Maybe you are not old enough?’

My husband: ‘I totally agree. Children, please more respect to Master Yoda ….eeehm I mean Mama..’

Walter (carefully studying her before giving an answer): ’80?’
Walter is a charmeur.
