A day for important events

Today is an important day. Not only is it the fourth anniversary of losing my mum, but I believe today would also have been Michelle's dad's birthday (am I right Michelle??) and.... dum da da dum...... Charlotte decided to grace this important day with her first sentence. Not that we were terribly impressed under the circumstances.... 8.30pm, still faffing around awake in the lounge - high on some sugar product that was no doubt offered to her today on an outing with her grandparents (!!, no probably not, they are not the type to offer her 'bad' foods, but why she is so awake at this time of night is a mystery to us!!)... and I say "charli I think it's time for bed" and she responds with (wait for it). "no sharli stay here"...... charming. Her first sentence is a defiant stance against bed time. This does not bode well.....

  1. Yes you are right. It was my father's birthday.

    How adorably cute of Charlotte to be talking so much and for her first sentence to be a show of defiance. Now's when you're going to need to put to good use all your child psychology skills. Henry just says "I not going to...." to whatever it is you suggest he do or not do. Take a deep breath.

    I must come and see that beautiful new baby sometime soon.
