A Soft Cuddle With You
I think this little poem from the lovely people at Fairy sum up those new born cuddles quite perfectly. It’s easy to sit and look at that messy house.

Dear Father Christmas… From A Toddler.
Dear Father Christmas. Righty here goes. I don’t have a clue what’s going on. I wasn’t really listening last year, as I was too busy learning to walk. But this year, I’m listening! And I’m Game. I have figured out that you’re this magic man that eats too much and gives everyone presents. COOL! I …
My Goldfish Came Back From The Dead!
With a title like that I should call Take A Break magazine, or maybe contact The Mirror! Some of my friends may have seen a rather emotional post on my Facebook on Saturday night, that told how my wonderful Goldfish Frank was passing away. I wrote: “I know people joke and laugh about being upset …

This morning I thought I would start Willow on her washing up training. A skill I shall teach all my children from the earliest age possible. Whats the point in having kids, if you cannot train them up to be your slaves…. Agh hem, I mean, little helpers!
