I got up earlier than all my munchkins this morning and saw off my Beloved to work for once (although there was not enough smooching for a rare child-free time, Beloved – let’s do better next time!). H was the first to get up, about 8:30, and whinged about before presenting me with an enormous poo (gee, thanks). B was reading in bed as usual before she got up a bit before 9. She did some times tables exercises, using me as a timer, then settled in to do some fluffy ‘putering before the 10 o’clock shut off time. K came downstairs about 9:30 and watched Playschool before sharing porridge for breakfast with H. H proved to be Extremely Fond of porridge, and also of mugging me for the spoon. The TV is still on, with the option for K to watch the two junior PS shows For the Juniors and Our Animals, but the computers are shutting…down…now…
