Like her apparently!

Lil Man: You’re so funny Mummy! Like Miranda!

I wasn’t sure whether to take that as a compliment or not at the time he said it, as Miranda Hart, is a bit silly…

But you know what, thinking about it, she is absolutely fantastic! She IS indeed funny, her comedy show Miranda was hilarious, and she is a great role model for women. Yes, she’s bigger than others, not conventionally pretty, but has carved a great career out of her sense of humour, and she has done work for charity like Comic Relief. She also has her serious moments, in Call the Midwife, showing a different dimension to her…

So, yes, I’m happy to be compared to her by my sweet but rather cheeky Lil Man, who incidentally loves to watch Miranda’s series, and giggles his way through each episode!

Outside Pops and Mums house

Looking at the beautiful sprung flowers in bloom, and especially the daffodils, reminds me of a day about 3 years ago when Lil Princess was in nursery.
She had been talking about all things ‘spring’ in class and was very excited to share her new knowledge!

Me: So what did you do today in nursery?
LP: I know ALL about spring mummy!
Me: Cool! Like what?
LP: Bunnies and chicks,and lambs and flowers and dandydils!
Me: Dandydils??
LP: Yes, those yellow flowers, dandydils!

She’d mixed up daffodils and dandilions!
I can’t look at the yellow blooms without remembering that conversation!!

I love a bit of Eastenders, and the children have, on occasion, been known to watch the odd supervised episode with us…

I switched on the telly this morning and some other soap was playing a repeat episode.

LM: Mum! Is this Nextenders?
Me: No Son…
LM: Oh so it must be Coriander Street then!

I’m so glad that they don’t watch too much TV! Evidence in the fact he can’t get the names right!

He meant Eastenders, and Coronation Street!

Oh these kids… On a roll they are!
Lil Princess likes to help us set up in the classroom in the morning. Yesterday was no different.
She wrote the date…

Spot the deliberate mistake!

Lil Man’s new obsession is cars, and he’s convinced he sees Maseratis, Ferrarris, Maclarens all over the show… When they are something entirely different!
Today we were coming home from a particularly glitter-tastic Easter Craft Day …

LM: Mum! Look! A crisis!
Me: (looking worried) Where? What’s happened!?
LM: In front of us, there! A crisis!
Me: (rolling eyes) Oh, you mean a Chrystler…
