Fingers

[Seafood]

Little Mary wanders into her parent bedroom late one night and asks if they know how long they have lived at that house, then she holds up two fingers. “Yes, two years’ said mommy “well done”. The following night she again appears in their room asks if they know how many kittens they have. She then answers her own question by (correctly) holding up three fingers. Two nights later, she’s back to ask if they know how old she will be on her birthday next week, and as her parents look at her she holds up five fingers. “Well done again” said mommy “Don’t you agree daddy ?” “Sod that “ said daddy, clearly exasperated, “I want to know where she is getting all those fingers from !”
