Hint no. 3, 4 & 5!

Hint no. 2

Sunnies, as they're called down under! I have a very narrow face so its quite a mission to find sunglasses that suit my face. My present pair are children's sunglasses, which cost £6 from Boots! But since I am no longer able to shop at my beloved Boots and mine are shall we say, looking worse for wear, I would love a new pair.



I found these online and think they would be perfect for my little face!

Hint no. 1.

I recently discovered a new follower of my blog - my darling Husband!!!

Hi Babs!

And so, since my birthday is just around the corner, I thought I would drop a few hints. I recently discovered this lovely Heartstrings Necklace whilst "blogging"! Its so beautiful and I would love one of my own to treasure.

I was going to put a link in for the actual website but do you think I can figure out how to do that? NOPE. So here's the web address: http://www.lisaleonardonline.com/custom-necklaces/heartstrings-necklace.html
for ANYONE who's interested in buying one. wink wink

Happy shopping!

Blessed with 3 beautiful children!

Planes, trains and automobiles!

I am more than convinced that Mothers are the "best drivers in the world"! Anyone who can control arguments, listen to "daily news", pass dropped toys or drinks and still keep the car on the road has got to be good!

This is how things go in my car!

Gethin: Mommy, ai aine! (airplane)

Mommy: Yes, there's an aeroplane. Wow!

Gethin: Mommy, ig ruck! (big truck)

Mommy: Yes, big truck!

Gethin: us! (bus)

Mommy doesn't reply because she's concentrating.

Gethin: Mommy, US!

Mommy: mmmmm

Gethin: MOMMY! US!

Mommy: yes

Gethin: MOMMMMMY! USSSS!

Mommy: Yes, I see it Geth! BIG BUS!

And so it goes on, for every plane, train, bus, big truck, digger and even WATER! If I dare not acknowledge his sighting I am bombarded with repeats until I issue the correct statement.
Add to this, Maddy and Ross having an argument about something trivial which soon reaches epic proportions unless I intervene! There we go - World War 3 in a car!

Yes, I definitely think "Moms" are the best drivers!

Back to school - for some!

Don't they look sweet! I took this in the first week of February when school started back again after the looooong summer. Ross is now in Year 2 (where has the time gone?)and Maddy and Gethin have started at daycare. Unfortunately, not all the smiles remained and Gethin is certainly not too impressed with this whole school malarkey. Poor boy, as I thought he cried quite a bit and when I fetched him later that day he was feeling very sorry for himself. Maddy, on the other hand, just loves going and thoroughly enjoyed her time there. Hopefully, she will use up her obsessive compulsive habit of decorating walls at school and no longer feel the need to do it at home any more.

My feelings about school are pretty similar to Gethin's at the moment albeit for different reasons. I think if I hear these words once more I shall go mad!
"Oh you're a teacher - you'll easily get a job!" PAH!!!!!!
Maybe, if you call 6 months and counting "easily getting a job"!!!
And so, on that "feeling very sorry for myself" note, I shall quit with no further comment..........

Just my "cup of tea"!

In an attempt to post more often and capture some "trivial but sweet" memories I have decided to share some of my latest acquisitions! The first one being, my new tea mugs which were very kindly given to me by my lovely Mother! I just love them!
They're from Maxwell Williams and they're all in aid of Breast Cancer and each mug has a little pink ribbon on it somewhere.
