"Ella and Mason are coming for a couple of hours," Keith announced yesterday afternoon. These are two of his grandchildren, aged two and ten months respectively. Forewarned is forearmed so I dashed around removing anything I thought might attract the attention of baby exploration and inquisitiveness. Laptops, phones, ornaments, all were removed - out of sight, out of mind, but I forgot about the imitation coal on the fire, the post-it notes pad and the ornamental grasses. Still, we had a lovely time with them and were still alive to tell the tale afterwards. It's amazing how easy it is to forget how much energy babies and toddlers need though!
Life in north east England (yes, we've moved!) with an eccentric Welshman and a small white dog that thinks he's a Rottweiler.
