Today the kiddos are all better. (Lucozade, comics, and boiled eggs & soldiers does that....)
and their smiles are back. :)

...Ladder.

I opened my back door this morning and saw...this. o_O
A ladder.
Going up into nowhere in the sky, like some sort of weird stairway to heaven.

.....Mummys day.

Do you know what I discovered today? That even if we are all sick, and sleep deprived and our house should be marked with a red cross on the door, we are together , and this, to me, is what Mother's day is all about.
Being a Mummy.
A stay-up-with-you-all-night-mummy, who rubs your back, and dries your tears, and makes you all clean and shiny again. And a mummy who smells faintly of sick. :))

Happy Mothers Day! (and some Hipstamatic love) (Personal)

..

Two very poorly little boys this mothers day. So so sick, bless their hearts, from 10pm till 5am, so we are all poorly and sleep deprived in the Reid House today.

...First Ice-cream of the year.

The Ice cream van always parks outside our house. Right outside our house. And there is no distracting Dylan and Boo from the tinny tones of Greensleeves, The popular english folk song....:))
"Please-can-we-have-one? Please-please-please-please-please-please-PLEAAAASE????" "RUUUUUUUUUUUN Daddy RUUUUUUUUUUUN ICE CREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!!!!"

....Where the Wild Things Are....

*Sighs and hugs book to chest* I love this book. It's one of those rare books that is just as special to adults (I know it's not just me..) as it is to children. It's hard to believe it's 48 years old. And the illustrations are A.mazing.

I remember it being a big part of my childhood. It was always read to me and my brother as kids by our mum, and now is part of both of my boy's childhood too, which I love.
Maurice Sendak, I salute you.
