Early blog

as a hectic day planned.

Small, Tim and I shopped yesterday afternoon. Quite pleasant to be out in the smaller family group, although a little odd. Really looking forward to being able to have a conversation with Small - he is very chatty, in his own way, but not yet making any word noises.

Quiet evening, when I got a fair bit of work done, but not nearly as much as I wanted to.

And now I’m expecting Big back in minutes, with her friend A, and we’ve to get ourselves organised and get over to Jan’s. Tsunami aid in progress there in the form of baking, and I think I’ll take some of the stuff to make our bath bombs as well for their bring and buy sale on Monday. Hopefully this will give us a way to discuss it all with Big as well - we appear to have done too well with explaining that not everything you see on tv is real, and she hasn’t registered that some things are. Hm.

And then the door bell rang, and they were here. I’ve got loads to organise (doing a belated Christmas run as well) so I’d better get myself off and get started.

Happy New Year everyone.

    Happy New Year Jax, Tim, Big and Small :-)

    Ady was explaining a bit about the tsunami to Davies yesterday, and although he has since recreated tidal waves smashing through places in his games I am not altogether sure he gets that it was for real either.

    aparently children under 5/6 are not really capable of distinguishing between reality and fantasy, so tv can be a bit confusing. We talked about it a bit today and had a newspaper with pics. although I didnt want them to look too closely at gruesome pics- we have enough nighmares in this house! actually even I had them last night.
