I love my kids.
No honestly, I really do.
So why do I find this so satisfying?
Mwah ha ha haaaaaaaaa
Oh and I nearly forgot to lovely Dumdad reminded me.
Remember when I posted about a local girls Olympic success earlier this week??
Well, Mansfield lass Rebecca Adlington got her second Gold Medal today along with her second World Record. What a star. I learnt to swim in the same pool as her don’t you know.

OK, I can see it’s some kind of trick of the eye, but I can’t work it out!!

LOL! That’s cute! That is awesome about swimming in the same pool! She is a star!

Those pictures left me speechless for a moment, but with a little outburst of laughter bubbling under the surface. SO funny.
Thank you for your comment on my post from Bloggers Annex. I appreciate the likes of you taking the time to “talk” to me. I’ve been stalking you for quite some time now. Don’t you hate that?

Oops, in the last comment I forgot to put in my blog address. Just in case you’re saying “what post from the bloggers annex and who in the whole world is this person and what is she talking about?”
um, yeah. Just in case.

Sometimes I worry about you my girl…then I remember when my two boys (11 months different in their ages…didn’t know what caused it apparently) and I stop worrying and start laughing with you!
hugs

I am laughing .. at your admission ..laughing with you as it were ..

Dan, I am so proud. Now I wonder if I can ‘make you forget you’re a man.’ Ready? You’re a lady. (Happy Mondays song if anyone is confused.)
21st CM, weird, but good. ;D
Corey, it’s a pleasure babe.
AOJ, it’s something to do with mirrors. I loved it.
Kitten, thanks, and she is such a star. She comes over as a really nice girl too.
Heather stalk away. I don’t tend to stalk as I’m a bit too gobby, but I have no access to my stats so I don’t really know who lurks. We’re working on it as I’d love to lurk back. Your post was brilliant. I’m really enjoying the posts at the annex, it’s a great idea.
Holl, have you never read “A Modest Proposal”. Such a sensible idea.
Brill, I’m a little past my prime, otherwise I’d have so kicked her butt. (Pretend pretend.)
Sandi, parenthood does weird things to us doesn’t it? Though some of us were maybe a little weird to start with.

so very cute that child and your husband’s getaway how slick – Rebecca Adlington super- I once heard 2 high school students talking about Ms. Kessler how old she was – I was 40 at the time !!!
