{Celebrating} birthdays of friends. With cake, and three colours of jelly and four flavours of icecream *and* sprinkles. {Making} a crochet hexagon. Which will be the base of a bag. {Chatting} with friends. {Missing} Small and Tim who stayed home this weekend. Keep looking round to work out what I’ve forgotten! {Snapshots} Big has found…
The last audiology appointment ever?

Really enjoying it. {Eating} jacket potatoes. {Feeling} very proud of my big girl. {Returning} the lovely Samsung Note 2 to three. {Snapshots} Big got swimmer of year for Bronze squad, am incredibly proud of her. Small has discovered there…
