Thank you so much for this post that has lifted my spirits from personal bad news this week, just what I needed to remind me that life does continue on.<br /><br />My older daughter used to do this, in fact one ABC book she had absolutely memorized, so it really was just as if she were reading it.Nancy Lettshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07181780512702116532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-53107391812712355032012-02-22T22:21:30.780+00:002012-02-22T22:21:30.780+00:00Today was an awful day news wise, so I thought I w...Today was an awful day news wise, so I thought I would finish the day on your blog hoping for something uplifting to read, and boy did you deliver! My three year old niece, or twee as she says, is 3000 miles away and I can vouch for how wise and wonderful they are at that age. There is nothing better than a small child approaching you with a book and settling in for a good read. They are particularly funny if they are trying to extent "staying up" time, thinking that the adult in charge has no idea what is going on. This adult in charge is often quite happy to play along and enjoy their company for ten more minutes.<br />Thank you again for the burst of happiness.Ruthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-15415029157552679282012-02-22T14:26:13.983+00:002012-02-22T14:26:13.983+00:00Gorgeous final image - even with the bleach effect...Gorgeous final image - even with the bleach effect.

You'll get a documentary on TV with a few faces blanked as the production crew didn't get a signature or whatever. It doesn't even come under privacy in my book, just courtesy. I am cluttering your comments with this spiel as I am on a bit of a quiet crusade to try and convince the whole world that it would be nice for everyone to use this as a default mode. I would just like to add my permanent vote for more dog pictures, as ever, lovely.Julienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-73175557204340002482012-02-22T13:48:09.930+00:002012-02-22T13:48:09.930+00:00Beatiful!

Somethings in this world are just perfect. My 5 year old now reads to me I the car on the school run, spelling out words she doesn't know. Quite a feat of attention for me when I'm trying to deal with London traffic. She often says, 'I'll wait until you are through these lights Mummy, I know you find it difficult to concentrate on more then one thing."scrumptious dayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01419573938670000694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-6509568977679778042012-02-22T11:05:28.851+00:002012-02-22T11:05:28.851+00:00I agree!
