Sun!

The Toddler and I have been enjoying the sun today.  We were up early, and she was out playing in the front garden by ten, when Postie came by.  I’m not sure if I should be concerned by how attached The Toddler seems to be to him now.  Hmm.  Though he seems to enjoy the attention she lavishes on him, even accepting her gift of a dead flower.  She pulls them off the bush at the front and hands them out to anyone who will take one.  Bless her.

Actually someone stopped us today to comment on how gorgeous she is, and even told me she should be a model or something.  I do love it when people stop us to tell me such things.  But she is gorgeous, and I’m not just saying that because I’m her mother.

She’s fun at the park though, because she never wants to leave.  She goes on the big climbing frame and gets scared, and then won’t come down.  When you finally rescue her, she then insists on having another go.  And the same thing happens again.  But if you try to leave the playground, she has a fit.  But she also has a fit if you try to bypass the playground.  But as she’s only three years old, I wouldn’t expect her to appreciate just a walk around the park.  After all, she wants fun and stimulation.  Though she does love the flowers.  She stops at all the gardens down our street admiring the flowers when we’re on our way to the shops.  Shame I’m not so bothered about them myself really.  Now don’t get me wrong, I do think they’re pretty et cetera et cetera, but I’m just not that bothered.  The Toddler is such a girly girl though.

The downside of all this sun though, is the fact that as it’s school holidays, the idiots are out in droves.  Town is a nightmare at the moment.  I managed to avoid it today though.  In fact we were done with our shopping by half eleven.  It was most bizarre.  We’re never normally so organized, but it meant we had most of the day to spend enjoying the weather.  And avoiding the tourists of course.  We shall definitely be camping out on that pier to push people off over the summer I think.  And The Toddler will love doing that.  I am joking of course.  But The Toddler really would enjoy pushing people off the pier. 

And just because I couldn’t resist mentioning it, Psycho thought he might have dislocated his shoulder the other night in bed.  The reason for this?  Because his arm was a bit sore when he woke up.  Hmm.  He’s such a baby.  Oh, and he probably won’t be getting his cars back from the bailiffs.  He’s talking about buying a new car instead.  Though in an attempt to save face, he’s claiming that he wants a smaller car, and that’s his reason for planning to buy another.  I don’t know.  It does make me smile though.  But I’m just mean like that.
