grace

she's asleep in my bed... i'll be crawling in beside her in several hours time and she'll be waking up way earlier than i'll want to wake up...

josiah's coming up tomorrow early evening and i'm heading out to meet felinity for a cinema trip...

grace has been great, a small teary moment when we went over some bumps with the buggy on the way to the train station in brighton and i wouldn't let her out to put her feet on them herself, but this only lasted a few minutes...

i foolishly turned down siggi's offer of the portable potty... we went to the loo a few times on the train up from brighton but she was shocked to learn that there was no toilet on the victoria line train....

go and look!

no grace, honestly, there are no toilets on this train...

she held on admirably and asked if she could have a wee in a puddle as soon as we got outside finsbury park station... an offer i should have taken...

just a minute or two up the road and i'd decided to stop and let her wee in the street, but it was too late by then...

uncle longcat i'm weeing the buggy

didn't get her down though, she was still able to see the funny side of it...

by the time we'd got to mine she'd fallen asleep, so i carried her up to my room, stripped off the wet clothes and let her snooze for a little while and i ran a bath...

even when i woke her up to have the bath and eat something she didn't get upset... she was a little quiet for awhile, after the bath she was sat at our kitchen table eating toast while, K, spanish M & T chatted about how their parents don't undertand them...

then her bathroom ablutions, a couple of books (one of which was the three billy goats gruff that i got her for her 2nd birthday and that she loves, the other was the three little pigs that josiah got her for christmas that she also loves), then sleep, i lay beside her for awhile as she dozed off, reaching out to touch my arm as she likes to do...
