03:03:14 Babysitting
Today was spent with my favourite 2 year old, my beautiful God-daughter and her sister.
We baked and iced cup-cakes and made a Cafe sign for the front door ready for Mum's return. Then we played with my old doll and wrapped her in a rainbow blanket and sat reading Mr Men books together. The excitement when we heard mum's car pull in to the driveway was jump-up-and-down-on-your-tip-toes! We had laid the table with the poshest cups and saucers and arranged our sticky sprinkled cup-cakes on a three tiered plate. We sat and had afternoon tea together with the two little ones having iced water in their tea-cups to play along.
A beautiful day. These are the days that I will look back on when I am old and grey. The days that housework waited in the background and fun and mess making took priority. The days that make life rich and my heart sing.
And these are the memories the children will hold in their hearts xx
