ailbheIt's 3:30 pm and I've just turned the telly on.
Mind you, so far today we have played in the garden (laundry, sandpit, watering the plants with the rainwater from the paddling pool), walked to the shops, done painting-and-sticking (Andy Warhol move over; Linnea has discovered making prints All By Herself and we now have three prints of a blue painting in the dining room), washed all the paint off, done the whole teeth and hair and clothes and nappy thing, picked a dandelion, found a stick on the way to the shop and stashed it behind a lamppost for retrieval on the way home (it was still there), listened to the baby kicking, read books, cut ALL her fingernails (they look longer with blue paint under them), had snack, lunch, other snack, tidied up several times (though you can't tell), and, er, other stuff I've forgotten.
Still, turning the telly on is a sure sign of failure.
