Hello again.
I am pleased to say my little man looked great in his Holland strip, enjoyed his edam sandwiches and apparently amazed his teacher (and the class) about his new found knowledge about the dutch and key various historical figures. He has also been voted as the class representitive and received a certificate of achievement for his reading ability. I am so proud of him and it has done wonders for his self confidence.
My husband and I went to meet his teacher last night (10/10/06). 'So far so good/very pleased with him, a bright and enthusiastic little boy but easily distracted by others' etc....... As a special treat a trusted carer from my daughters nursery baby sat my mad cap trio for the evening and my husband whisked me a way for a sumptious dinner in a nearby olde worlde village. The company, food, wine and venue were sublime. But alas like all fairy tale evenings, time flew by far too quickly. In fact I am sat here this morning with the mother of all hangovers, having completed a mad dash on the school run in the rain and driving my dear husband back to the village to retrieve his car. I can honestly say I have never been happier and totally in love with my little family.
My little princess had her 3rd birthday party last Sunday. She was ecstatic with her first Barbie doll and she (my daughter) looked gorgeous in her pink dress, tiara with matching earrings and flower garland. She is my little girl and I defend my right to indulge her in girly sparkling fluffy pink sweet nothings (however cliched and cheesy). My baby son also enjoyed all the extra attention and thrived in all the ambient activity. The party went well, with plently of champers, party poppers, calorific goodies and a boogie or three. The children had a good time too!
Oh well I have finished my coffee now and so I had better return to domestic bliss and get on with the ironing.
Take care all, Mrs C. XXX
