The Park

I'm brave Mummy... he keeps telling me that.    I know he is brave, I also fear it, one day he will fall, but it hasn't ever happened yet. 

We've had a full day, the kind of holiday day you have.  Bit of a quiet morning, colouring (including the youngest colouring his face, of course), dropped off cards for neighbours, then some reading.  This afternoon was a trip to the park, where we happened to bump into lots of the boys' school friends, then home for a puppy visit from some neighbours to help ours get used to other dogs and people, then we met another neighbour and her dog. After all that, settled down to the serious business of icing the Christmas cake (the helpers ate quite a bit of it), call with Granny & Grandpa, then a Christmas show on TV.  I've managed over 10,000 steps without trying! 

Today I'm grateful for: 
The chance to sit down at last... 
Bumping into the boys friends and having the chance to chat to some of the school mums (they are all lovely) 
Kind neighbours who want a garden visit to help with the puppy (it also helps their slightly older puppy).
