Missing Eric

Our gorgeous pussy cat Eric has been missing for 4 days. It’s very unusual for him to go wandering and I am really worried about him.

The Little Miss and I went out putting leaflets through the doors of neighbouring properties. Unfortunately I have to say I fear the worst but I guess miracles do happen!

Back to Jane's

This week is half term and the children are with their old childminder. The Little Miss pretty much prized my eyes open at 6am and, in a hushed whisper, asked me ‘Mummy, how many minutes until I see Jane?’

Surrogate grandparents

Went to church this morning and I was singing so I accosted an old couple to look after the kids during the service…. actually it was my friends parents and they were more than happy to help!

What made me smile most was when my friend Emma arrived with her two children and they all piled in the same row of chairs together. It’s good to have surrogate family when we need them most! I hope they need us too.

Best of friendsPoor Betty looks like she is being manhandled, however, she spends all her time on kids beds so she can’t be scared of them!

February weather!The weather was so beautiful that we met friends at a local restaurant after school. The kids played in the play area and we drank coffee in the sun. Life is good.

Valentine's Day

Valentine’s Day and I was going to put up a picture of my wonderful husband and make some gushy statements about how much I love him. Those things are all absolutely true but the only pics I have of him are those The Little Miss took on my phone, first thing in the morning and The Mister looks tired!

Instead this is a picture of the card The Little Miss made at school for the person she loves most. We posted it to Grandma in England as soon as we found a stamp!

Grandes Rocques

Such a beautiful day. Cold and clear and this photo doesn’t show how beautiful the beach really is.

Beach time

I had the most wonderful half an hour walk with my sister and her crazy dog today.

The weather has been gorgeous, sunny and relatively mild and the beach was looking glorious.

Living here is a gift that just keeps on giving.

Sleeping babeThe Little Mister has been really poorly all day and we all slept badly because his temperature was so high. He didn’t go below 39 degrees all day and on a couple of occasions he hit 40 so I took him to A&E. Upper respiratory infection caused by a virus, but it always scares me when his temperature spikes so high.

I went out of choir and when I got back The Mister told me that there was good news…. ‘the children are both asleep’… the bad news….

The Little Miss was asleep on the floor of her lounge having made a bed for herself.

Church

One of our local churches was short of singers for their 4pm service and they asked me if I would go and sing.

I thoroughly enjoyed it – it was a lovely laid back service and they provided food afterwards. Win win.

What made me smile the most though was that there were a couple of dogs in the building including the Vicar’s dog who just wandered in and out and when the door at the back was shut she just barked until one of her slaves let her in. It felt a little like the Vicar of Dibley.

Wonderful.
