1st day back at daycare today. I rang aroudn luchtime and was told you'd settled in nicely and was enjoying yourself. I really love the balance in your personality. You can be so independent when you need to be but are never short of a cuddle and a kiss.

You re toilet training at teh mometn wit a reward of watchign the Cars Dvd for ever success in the toilet or potty. OK you may read this later as an adult and think "oh mum!" but jsut wait until you become a parent yourself and you'll see why I'm so excited by your small successes in this matter.

Tonight you were so sweet. I was trying to put Jude to sleep but you wanted to listen to the story too. The problem is you don't sit still so that was stopping Jude from settling down. I sent you out to Daddy only for you to later come in with cars for Jude that you dropped over the side of the cot. Sweet but annoying as Jude really didn't need cars to play with right then.

Oh another thing, I used to thinkyou are shy but now whenever we go out shopping, you happily walk up to people with a "Hello, how you going?"

Lewis you are 3 and 1/4 - you should not be able to read me the shopping list! My goodness, you are even trying to sound out words you don't know but look like words you know ie bickie looks like bike ( not that I even know where you learnt bike from!)
