and today we welcome a new catagory!
becuase I seem to use titles on a theme of best laid plans and all that way too often round here so they obviously deserve their own section!
Scarce had I finished the last blog than I got a phonecall from Dad, Aprilia had tummy ache and needed mummy right now. So off I flew to collect a droopy, scarlet, close to tears child. Mind you, she was in a stuffy room, way hotter than we hvae the house and mum had insisted she fasten her cardi as aparently it looked silly unfastened and a teeshirt is not suitable atire for this early in the year. Funny you know, within 5 minutes of being home, divested of aran weight (ie really warm) cardi, she started to perk up. She’s had tummy ache on and off for days but has today said she is a little constipated so I force fed her fruit and gallons of water all afternoon to hopefully cure taht one! It also turns out that mum has been bullying her again. She got a book out for her to read and didn’t give her any help at all, just kept saying break it down into bits, which really upset her. I’m glad I didn’t know that until after we had left otherwise I would have probably ended up being struck off the will again. Aprilia is so very, very close to gaining a bit of reading confidence adn if that bully has f-ed it all up again I swear I will not be responsible for my actions!
So, no studying. Not much crafting done either. ho hum.
But on the plus side, we did stories and a page of Stile where she showed off by reading the words inside her head and doing the whole page in about 10 seconds. Not that she can read or anything……
