Well, Lola has got her place at St.James, thank goodness, now we have to wait for goodness knows how long to confirm that she is up the hill Ebrington. Fingers firmly crossed for that!
Look at our pumpkin plants, we planted them from seeds that Lola was given in Catherine's party bag...
took these photographs this evening at 9ish, on a school night! She is currently having a growth spurt, so as a result, she is covered in cuts and bruises from clumsiness and falls asleep
in the middle of her lunch!!! She crawls into bed, shattered and then wakes to "stingy legs and a very hungry tummy". She has just munched her way through many grapes and many more cheddar biscuits.
We went to get new shoes today, although failed as they wasn't any in her size. 10 H !!!!!
Have been helping my friend with her little girls letter of appeal as she didn't make it to the school of choice, so stressful and made me even more grateful that we were successful. Lola and Jonas had a birthday party together for the first time, was lovely to see them together, passing the parcel.
They spend lots of time cuddling / wrestling on the floor at the moment...
Which is a great game until someone gets hurt, usually about ten minutes in!
We went to the Vicar's house after Sunday's service - a grand Chipping Campden stone affair. Lola had a great time eating chocolate and playing with Abbey. Whilst there we went on the usual loo trip, she is so nosey! Anyhow, today, we were sat colouring and she piped up..." Mummy?" "Hhmmmmm" I replied absently " We need a bigger house don't we?" "Whys that then Lola?"
"Well, I was thinking, we could have David's house (Vicar) as his children all live away now, and its so big and so lovely, it would be perfect for us, don't you think?"...
I agreed, when I'd finished chuckling.
So pleased Lola got her place at St. James, thats the first hurdle over, I am sure the rest will follow fine - keep praying. Grandmere
