The Tale of the Three Large Pigs, Teresa Hamilton [ebook reader 8 inch txt] 📗

‘Thank you mum,’ they all chorused. ‘And thank you for all you did for us. We didn’t realise until we had to all the work for Boris and his family, just how hard it is to run a home and look after a family.’
‘That’s alright, darlings,’ Myrtle said pouring herself another cup of tea from the pot. ‘But don’t think you’re coming home now. I think you’ll get along just fine from now on and I’ll come and visit often. Anyway, I must say thank you to you three. When you broke the blue, velvet armchair I found a stash of money inside that must have been hidden long ago, so how about I take you on holiday and then buy you a few nick-knacks for your new home?’
You can probably visualise the response that Myrtle got to this suggestion but it’s enough to say that they all lived happily ever after.

Moral of this story – don’t take your mum for granted, you never know when she may come in useful.
