The last few days

ailbheMemorial service on Wednesday. Linnea went to Girls' Brigade on Friday (and came home with a TON of sweets, suspect the advice Rob got about how much to leave was slightly flawed). Rob and I made it into the hideous, heaving town centre on Saturday to do some Christmas shopping. And on Saturday afternoon Emer developed a dodgy tummy and ended up back in nappies!
Today I'm the only one actually ill though both girls seem a bit wan. Rob has taken them out for a cycle.
It's now definite that Linnea is reading by the light coming in through the crack in the door, after bedtime. She mainly reads a book called "Yuck," which neither Rob nor I like. It has almost no pictures but we have no idea how much she's reading, as usual. The cheap paperback binding is disintegrating from being fallen asleep on or stuffed out of sight when a parent comes in. It's a bit daft.
Still, I remember doing it, and my eyes were fine until I started working with computers...
Today I started reading Dr Dolittle aloud and both girls listened to about 60 pages. That's not that unusual, but the strange thing is that when I stopped Linnea forgot to pretend she wasn't listening and instead asked me to read some more.
