"I think we might have not a few arguments when it comes to raising children," answered Ginna with mock sobriety. She wanted to say "our children," but that was not the right time, she thought, to be presumptuous - not with the impending talk with her father looming before them. She did not want to count her chicks before they were hatched, and certainly not openly before Harreld.

Thankfully he did not notice her omission and naturally had a good sense of humour. His booming laugh was infectious and soon she laughed along with him. "In all seriousness," she continued, "it could be a good way for them to develop some sense of responsibility and respect for others' property. You might have to keep watch at all times, however. You would not want either of them harmed while working for you."
