for the record...

Patrick has started school and I wanted to record some of the funny little things he has said about school etc... 1. I am excited about school but I am worried that i wont have enough time to play.... 2. I'm friends with lucy but she doesn't seem very interesting (interested) in me... ( to which i reply thats ok darling we're very interested in you=big smile...) 3. I told on Marshall today... I told Mrs T_ _ ... (Me: what do you mean darling? ) You know like you tell me to go to the corner or go to my room... 4. not school - but funny anyway- Can we come out of the car with you to the shops mummy? but if you see something you like dont buy it, and dont but anymore clothes... you have enough nice clothes! 5. favourite thing at school is play time

Marcus: still obsessed with pretending to be an animal, wanting to be an animal rescuer when he grows up... so glad we have finally been able to get him some sort of pet.... (it's ok if I love it to bits too, isnt it?)

After a testing morning Marcus says to me:

"mummy I'm so happy" me: why? "because I love you so much" 

Sophie: (time for bed sophie...) emphatic screams "NO! DONT WANT TO! WANT TO RUN AWAY!" i dread to think whar she will be saying when she is 15! thats all for now. 

Off The Page and stuff to share

Does this count as OTP??? I rediscovered one of my earliest 'efforts'... This was once my Kindy and Yr 1 school case which then became my barbie box! I remember I painted it with leftover paint from a colour by numbers kit LOL!

The barbies surviving inside have had their hair cut and 'coloured' with watercolour paints - oh dear, oh dear. I recall that making things for my dolls was as much fun if not more fun than actually playing with them. Interestingly at age 2 Sophie LOVES to paint , draw and colour - no interest in dolls though!

In scrapping news my christmas LO made it into FK ... in a frame! it was a pleasant surprise to see it presented so.

I love pages without photos which is why there are a few here...Change and LOU are my recent efforts for ForeverAlways . They are in this months newletter.

need to post again soon about our big little boy starting school...
