Still here

... is what Katie said to me this morning, talking about the snow. We spent last night snuggled in her bed. She's been very content since coming home on Sunday, but very adamant about not wanting me very far away, falling asleep in my arms both nights since and holding me close through the night. Not a complaint from me.

Last night, she'd chosen to sleep in vest, pants and dressing gown. So this morning, she chose to get dressed in her jammies. Pretty sensible actually, very snuggly for going out in the snow, I thought. We had a fab walk in the snow. She's still not got over the little kid love of eating handfuls of the stuff. She's just discovered the joy of a good snowball fight too. She thinks its hilarious when I get her and equally loves to have a pretty hard try to get me too. But bless her, she sucks at throwing, something I suspect she's inherited from her mama.

She was a bit sad to go to nursery today, but the promise of one of mummy's buttermints when she came out was apparently a small bonus and her little bottom lip went a tiny bit in. She cuddled Monkey tight, sat with one of the staff cuddling her and stroking her head. By the time I walked back along the path home, which overlooks the back of nursery, and you can just see into preschool, she was sat eating breakfast quite happily. I could see her little animated hands going, telling some story or other.


In other news, we want to say a HUGE thankyou for the love for yesterdays celebration blip. We've never had that many comments, hearts or stars, for any of our entries. Top spot in spotlight, top row with the favourites page. Chuffed to bits. Thankyous will follow, but here's one to you all for now. And for those of you that asked, it's going to be made into a large acryllic. I have no idea where it will go, but yes, it will be printed big.
