ladybird, ladybird fly away home….

although sadly this one didnt really get much of a chance to do that owing to the overwhelming 'love' showed it by Maisie and particularly Poppy. Thinking about it though doesn't that rhyme end with 'your house is on fire and your babies are gone?'….not perhaps the most uplifting of children's rhymes!!

Anyway…we found a little ladybug and the girls were very cute with it, it got put to bed, carried in the car and then given a special 'seat' in Poppy's cupholder!..then it did what all good ladybugs worth their salt do and flew off…i think if it had been me, I would have done that A LOT sooner..

The good, the bad and the Ugly…

not sure why ugly has a capital letter there in the title….no significance meant.

Just hit on this idea on a friend's blog. My on line buddy Mel. She rock the Casbah…

So the good…not having to cook sunday lunch. Our lodger was away so i didnt feel the need to provide the old sunday lunch …woohoo….We just headed to the supermarket because i had a sudden realisation that we had only 3 nappies left and we got the the kids little pack ups from the cafe…

the bad…we seem to have misplaced a rabbit…hmm..it seems to have disappeared, no signs of a struggle and no scurrying noises from any smallish places…we are just a bit stumped..

the ugly…Isaac, bless him, watching a short bit of top gear where they are racing a car against a steam train and later on coming out with some of the, shall we say, more grown up language they use on that show..Yeah lesson learnt by Mummy and Daddy I can tell ya!!

Can i just tell you…

how proud we are of our boy. Our beautiful boy as Maisie calls him, isnt that sweet? Isaac got his school report on friday and he got A in all areas which means he showed good effort and enthusiasm in all areas. Which is cool. We made a fuss of him, of course with the additional…'as long as you try the best you can do, whatever mark you get is good with us' The school he goes to is quite academic focused, which is ok, but there needs to be a balance and we strive to provide that for him. So whilst I am thrilled that he does so well in class and school. I am also equally thrilled when he stops to help his sister or thinks about someone else or asks me if we can pray for the children who don't have any parents or any toys. We want to see him grow in all areas but mostly in his character…

So well done Isaac, you are just the best you. We love you.
