Ever the negotiator,
Miro constantly finds ways to meet us in the middle.

Recently, we've decided that the bedroom and garden are play areas,
And the lounge room must be left pristine;
Tired as we are of a house strewn top to toe with toys
And squealing boys!

So when Mummy asks Miro to clean his room today
Miro says, quite savvily,
"But you said we could make a mess in our bedroom!"

"Hmm, not quite," Mummy says,
"It's not nice for Matai to have his dodo in this chaos."
"But Goo *likes* the mess," says Miro breezily.
"My put him to bed. Ok?"
