We got froglets!

Remember those tadpoles we had months ago? We all long since lost interest in them and they moved outside with Ady fishing the dead floating ones off the top of the bucket every so often. And then today, Ros’ Pea comes along and peers into the bucket and spots some swimming about. 🙂 They are now residing in our old sandpit with various rocks and other luxurious features to aid them in their next step frogdom. Which probably means that in the same style as children offered structured schooling versus benign neglect they will all be dead by morning 😆

Did lots of not a lot this morning including watching some Cbeebies which we’ve not done for months, before heading off to the park at midday with a picnic to meet Julie, Jack and Maisie. The children played while we caught up and then we went and took it in turns to push children on the single, much argued over, swing there.

Came home and the children started playing with blocks until Ros arrived with children. The boys imediately got lost somewhere in the house and garden and the girls drifted away eventually leaving Ros and I to catch up too. Ady came home just in time to offer hello and goodbye kisses (;-) ) along with hanging baskets and bedding plants.

I dashed round to my Granny’s, whos birthday it is today with some more plants and a card but she had already gone out for the evening so I left them on her doorstep and came home again. We read the children a library book they’d chosen without me really looking at it which turned out to be quite poignant and possibly not the best of bedtime reads but a nice book nonetheless and off they went to bed.

Dinner is the last portion of the lasagne Chris never had and then I need to finish listing all the clothes which are sat in the hall having beeen photo’d ready to go on ebay.
