Double Figures

January 3rd, 2007 by Sarah

Feeling a teensy bit old here, when I had my first baby I didn’t ever imagine being the parent of a 10 year old! Think she’s had a lovely day, it started early to do a few pressies before the first day back at school – both girls were desperate to get back, we had to stop them leaving the house too early!

They came home from school with Caitlin & Riona in tow and spent the rest of the afternoon painting/playing pirates.

Joe and I were pleased to get back to a little bit of routine today too, and spent most of the day doing useful stuff, and playing with his MGears set that we gave him for Christmas.

We built a helicopter first, and then he realised that he really wanted to build something with a motor (although without four wheels as we seem to have lost a tyre already :roll: , thankfully LR are sending us a new one) so I then had to take the wretched helicopter apart and help him build a bulldozer instead.

    Happy Birthday Anna. I remember being very excited about reaching double figures and my mean old Granny telling me it was nothing special! Still, I knew better – it *is* something special if it’s special to you! Hope you had a lovely day.

    Clare and her three girlies who surely never be old enough to have a ‘double figures’ post of their own!

    Happy Birthday Anna. She looks so grown up in the photo. So much older than the girl who starred in the Different Lives program :-)
