Sigh…

I’m trying to finish a unisex baby blanket for my friend Hazza , well not actually for her , for the new cling on .. she has decided not to find out what flavour the new thing will be … and as far as I’m concerned gender has no specific colour ( my husband favours pink shirts ) so this blanket has things I like and also the baby will not give a shit . She has a little lad called Riley and he’s incredibly entertaining so I hope the new thing will be fun too . I’m not a huge fan of babies but some of them are passable, I do like a wilful toddler though . When I say ‘ like’ that means just for a while and don’t bring them to me very often ;-)) also I can’t be held responsible for what comes out of my mouth as I’m as surprised as you are most of the time ….
I once baby sat for a friend and I let her baby roll off a small mattress ( on the floor ) and it got wedged under the armoire.. the baby did not the mattress … they let me look after it again the following week , no lasting trauma apparently.. the said baby is now 16 and starting A’levels so that’s good .
I’ve got form for forgetting my own children and other peoples , it actually started when I was about 9 and I lost my brother in Rackhams in Birmingham. Eventually the security guard found him trying on Aftershave .. he was 4 .. my brother was 4 the security guard was an adult ….
