Holy crapoly! in crawling into 2014.

You know how toddlers gradually become little people and you get used to it so slowly that you don't even realise that it had happened?

I'm remembering that it happened! Libby isn't far off being two and a half and when it's time to go out she gets her shoes and puts them on, she climbs into the car or buggy, she eats by herself beautifully and we have some great conversations. She is definitely a little person now.

An old breastmates lady is due to go on maternity leave in four weeks time and her childminder had been planning to leave the profession. She planned to tie it in with breastmates lady going on maternity leave so that there wouldn't be any upheaval for the little girl who I shall call Browny.

However, the other childminder was offered a job and had to start this week so, for the last four weeks, I'm looking after Browny. She is 17 months old and is gorgeous, amazing, funny, easy going and all that stuff. She's lovely to have around. But I have become (again) so used to telling the kids to get ready, to everyone being relatively independent that is a shock to the system! Lol.

I'm exhausted, but not in a bad way... and we have two short weeks in a row too...

Ah well - I had better go, running in the morning followed by breastmates with four kids in tow. Ttfn.
