But No Ferrets

MFG

"How can it be possible," my children are asking, "that all these years, whenever we ask if we can have a ferret, you say, 'No, they're too much trouble,' but when Lee calls from Ethiopia to ask if we can have two more brothers, you say 'OK'!?"

"That is odd," I have to agree.

"And they?re really coming, Daniel and Yosef?"

"Yes, they're coming."

"So, can we have a ferret?" 

"No." 

"Why?" 

"They're too much trouble."
