We have a little fellow staying with us at the moment. His name is Gordon. Gordon is a hamster. In the week Gordon lives at Bob’s nursery and at weekends the children take it in turns to take him home. This weekend it’s our turn. Bob couldn’t wait for Gordon to come and stay! She has been counting down the days for weeks! She is so excited to have him here and he has definitely been the cause of many [click here to read on]
We went to visit my friend who has recently moved to Minehead this week. It was cold but we put on our hats, scarves and gloves and went to the beach. My friend had a new camera and we enjoyed working out how to use it. We had a lovely smile filled day! If you have written about something that made you smile or captured a photograph that melts your heart I would love it if you linked up below. [click here to read on]
We have been smiling from ear to ear this week! My husband had to travel to London for work so Bob and I took the opportunity and gate crashed his trip to visit old friends. I went to university in London and many of my friends still live there. The last time we went to London Bob was 18 months old and I didn’t feel prepared to negotiate the tube with a pushchair. We stayed in North London and my [click here to read on]
I have often wondered when Bob would start telling jokes. When do children find their sense of humour? Maybe some of them never find it. I know plenty of adults without one! 😉 Over the last week the joke telling has begun so, as you can guess, this week has been full of smiles! She doesn’t really understand how a joke works but she definitely makes us laugh! The first joke she told came out of the blue and it [click here to read on]
This week I am going to share a day full of smiles! On Sunday my friend had her daughter christened and I had the honour of being her godmother. I was overwhelmed when she asked me and over the moon. It took me a long time to write her christening card as I struggled to put into words how much it meant to me. I also wanted to let her know that I would always be there for her. I [click here to read on]
I love Bob’s imagination! It never fails to make me smile! I am quite creative, some people would say that I like to ‘faf’, and we are always making things out of junk. Whether it’s a box for Bob to serve popcorn out of before we watch a film or a trampoline for her small world toys out of a plastic cup and some cling film. The other day when I went to pick Bob up from nursery she ran [click here to read on]
Bob has loved the idea of ballet for a while. A few months ago we went to a toy shop and out of everything in the shop she chose a ballerina fancy dress costume. Bob had her first ballet class last week. She was so excited and couldn’t wait to go! When we arrived she saw all of the other children in their beautiful outfits and asked if she could have some clothes like that. I told her that if [click here to read on]
