Aww Charity! How kind. Even when my connection came back I couldn`t post as i was on D`s laptop which doesn`t have this link . I`m so glad I can read all the funny observations again here . Hope we can coincide again on the board ( I`ll just sleep in the next day as it`s our Summer holidays over here!)

Me too! Well it`s 4.26 pm here , horribly hot & both my kids are in the pool unattended while I`m typing this . Carl is 10 though & swims like a fish .
Think I`ll move onto the laptop though . Be back in a minute.

No false alarm . They have obviously had their regulation 8 1/2 minutes in the pool now they`re out dripping water everywhere . I`m going to have to bribe them to stay in longer with candy. They went on & on about how they wanted us to rent a house with a pool here & now they never use it unless their friends are visiting!

I should use it more too . How come Douglas always suggests we all jump in at the weekend JUST when I`ve finished blow drying my hair? Does he do it on purpose do you think ? So that he is" Hands on energetic fun dad "& I`m the boring one holding out the towels?
I have to do that late at night too ! Jodie cries if she sees me taking the decorations down! Little does she know it was her Birthday on Jan 3rd! She is 5 & she doesn`t know it! She still had Christmas presents to unwrap ( had to wait for web cam for my inlaw`s to see) & i wanted to spread it out for her . We are celebrating it when her daddy is home . But she keeps asking me how many sleeps `til her Birthday. Will i go to Bad mother purgatory Charity?

Thank you Charity! I suppose I should make the most of it while she is young & can`t read the calendar! The poor soul`s party will have to wait til feb for the party when school is back & her friends are available! Jodie was due on the 27th too ! But i was determined to get my Christmas dinner & my Hogmannay ( Scottish NY eve) festivities in first!

I guess there are some compensations . It will be fine if we move back to The States or UK as then she`ll be back to school almost! I got her pre school to do an "early" celebration as her birthday was in the holidays . Montessori do this ceremony where the children look at photos of Jodie`s 5 years & she walks around the sun ( candle) with a globe to signify that 5 yrs has past since she was born . she must be really confused now that her birthday still isn`t happening!
