The 5yo was well prepared for school, he wore his uniform to bed! Hubby and I sat him up when we came to bed and peeled off his winter sweater.
It's a constant adventure venturing into boy's room. Last week he found an old Virgin Atlantic vanity bag, (from the days when we had holidays.) He was delighted to find the sleeping blindfold, handy really as one does find it jolly difficult to sleep, especially when one leaves all the flaming bedroom lights on!
I enjoyed the peace today too. Even Ruby took a 2.5 hour nap. Love the kiddos, but love a bit of quiet time too.
ReplyDeleteMy son thinks the inflight bag of goodies Huzz often brings back from trips are great too. Those horrible long socks that KLM include and of course the eyemask and toothbrush in the case. Such a load of rubbish to us but the chidren always love them.
Too precious, you are blessed.
ReplyDeleteI like his style! I hope he insisted on wearing cashmere bed-socks as well.
ReplyDeleteHmm, I am missing my boys at the moment, the house is too quiet and I no longer have my focus. I need to find a job, but they are very hard to come by
ReplyDeleteNow you will have most of each day to yourself chasing chickens and canning and pickling all that delicious food from the garden! I think....
ReplyDeleteWell, you could live vicariously through me if your too busy.
Top Cat!
ReplyDeleteVictoria: Oh yes, the toothbrush has been v popular. Must ask hubby if I could jet off on a long-haul, Maldives or something, ALONE... (purely to bring back the playthings for the kiddos of course!!)
ReplyDeleteJames: We are blessed and you'll know why if you ever read my blog post entitled http://archers-at-the-larches.blogspot.com/2010/03/my-5yo-is-thunderbird-puppet.html
notwavingbutironing: Shushhhh, he doesn't know about casmere yet, they're mine all mine....
