I have told The Burp on more than one occasion how fascinating it is that her two boys are divided neatly between their parents: nine-year-old Bay Leaf has her looks and mannerisms while Machiavelli, six-and-a-half, looks, laughs and talks like his dad, The Rooster.
Yesterday I got an email from her. She'd taken the kids to see Walking with Dinosaurs the night before and wanted to tell me about their reactions:

Just had to tell you...
The kids were absolutely blown away last night. I have never ever seen them so wide eyed and totally excitable.
At the end I said to them, "Well, what did you think?"
Bay Leaf: "That excelled even greatness."
Machiavelli, whilst pumping his arms and doing pelvic thrust movements: "That was wicked, that was wicked. WICK ED!"
I'm glad you think Bay Leaf takes after me...

The good looks of both the boys comes from their wonderful Aunt!!!
Well I think so anyway
Hmm, quite possibly true. After all, it wasn't for nothing that I've written about my crush on Bette Midler, you know.
