Little Miss Madam and the Sunshine Duke. Sunday, 11 December 2011. Everyone knows that kids hate going to bed. That they'll think of every last possible excuse:. I need a wee wee / poo poo / drink / the light's not on enough / the light's too bright / I haven't got my covers on / I'm cold / Ive lost my noo noo/big bear/Richard bear. So you go up and down like a bleedin' yo yo. No you do NOT need a wee wee you've only just had one. There's a glass of water by your bed. Until finally, all is quiet. And whe...

Little Miss Madam and the Sunshine Duke. Tuesday, 28 February 2012. Little Miss is always Right. You can often find me saying, 'you don't need to argue with me about this,' to Little Miss.

For example, in a recent drawing-on-hands incident:. BUT,' she says, Hands On Hips, 'it's not INK on my hands mummy,. Links to this post. Your busines...

http://littlemissmadamandthesunshineduke.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Little Miss Madam and the Sunshine Duke. Sunday, 22 April 2012. Is it any wonder having kids ages you ten years? I was cooking dinner. A pan on the stove, filled with pasta, was boiling away. Little Miss hollered from the bathroom, needing help with, you know. I'm upstairs in the bathroom when the Duke came up saying, 'Mummy, I put the spoon in! You put the spoon in? He said, pleased as punch. Duke got a stern telling off, of course. Life lessons, I guess, life lessons. Links to this post.

Little Miss Madam and the Sunshine Duke: 5 Reasons I know I'm a Mother
http://littlemissmadamandthesunshineduke.blogspot.com/2012/03/5-reasons-i-know-im-mother.html
Little Miss Madam and the Sunshine Duke. Monday, 19 March 2012. 5 Reasons I know I'm a Mother. Thanks to Kate Takes 5. For the inspiration for this one! 5 Reasons I know I'm a Mother. 1 I've got tomato sauce on my new white top. 2 Only one eyebrow is plucked, the other will probably have to wait a week. 3 I have just received a very snotty kiss. 4 I actually like cold coffee (as in coffee-gone-cold not frappuccino). 5 Sorry, what were you saying? 19 March 2012 at 18:54. Would LOVE to see the eyebrow!

Little Miss Madam and the Sunshine Duke: May 2012
http://littlemissmadamandthesunshineduke.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Little Miss Madam and the Sunshine Duke. Tuesday, 22 May 2012. Top 5 things I love about kids. Thanks to Kate Takes 5. 1 Sense of time. Or rather, lack thereof. The fact that time is measured in meals: when we get there, will it be lunch? No Is it tea time? No Oh, is it lunch, then? No Oh Is it breakfast? 2 The ability to display every emotion they're feeling. Adults don't get the chance to throw down tools, hurl themselves onto the floor and wail because We Didn't Get What We Wanted. Links to this post.

Little Miss Madam and the Sunshine Duke: Love Letters
http://littlemissmadamandthesunshineduke.blogspot.com/2012/05/i-can-remember-my-first-love-letter.html
Little Miss Madam and the Sunshine Duke. Tuesday, 15 May 2012. I can remember my first love letter. It was circa 1987 and the boy in question pressed it into my hand before fleeing on his blue bicycle. Breathless, I read it around 150 times and kept it, treasured, long after we broke up. It pales into insignificance, however, with this. And just LOOK at the amount of kisses I got. Twenty-six kisses. 26! I'm one lucky gal. 15 May 2012 at 12:39. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
