A sip of tea

Mammy makes tea for them both in the pot

“Be careful,” she says, “it is very hot.”

Madelyn takes her mug, which is pretty

and slowly walks with it towards her Dotty.

She says, “Dot may also have a sip of tea”,

but mum doesn’t find this a good idea.

“You better give her a piece of your cake.

She doesn’t like tea, it’s no good for her.”
