A biking story!

Once upon a time, not so long ago; for absolutely no reason, (that I could fathom, anyway) Daddy came home early and took the children to the shop and bought them new bikes.
Which made them very happy.

And then they rode them all the way home!
The End!

Party in the park!

Dance in the sun!


And enjoy the sunshine!

Today, we are mostly.....ill!

Poor Tabby has a fever and is very clingy. It seems she can't be more than a few inches away from either Mummy or Daddy at any given moment.

Of course, Phoebe and Guy are fine and bouncing off the walls!
Here they're trying to look after an ill crocodile!

Happy Birthday Tabby-Kat!

My happiest baby has grown from this;





To this;

Happy second birthday Tabby!

My darling children.....

....at their very best!

Stuff that I'm watching and reading

Of course, I spend a lot of time watching these:
and reading what they write!
However messy and disorganised it is. (Where on earth do they get that from?!)
We've finally cleared up from Christmas!
And we're back on track for 2012! (God Bless The Fly Lady - she truly has a vocation!)


Also, I'm loving this one:
And then this:


And as a (mostly) vegetarian, this made me laugh:


Apart from that, not much else going on!

Happy Christmas, everyone!

Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas, and every blessing for 2012!

And, something else to think about at this time of year:
(PS. It's worth reading out loud, and slowly)

What The Donkey Saw
by
U.A. Fanthorpe

No room in the inn, of course,
And not that much in the stable
What with the shepherds, Magi, Mary,
Joseph, the heavenly host –
Not to mention the baby
Using our manger as a cot.
You couldn’t have squeezed another cherub in
For love or money.
Still, in spite of the overcrowding,
I did my best to make them feel wanted.
I could see the baby and I
Would be going places together.
