This is a picture of Woofy, Hannah’s favourite toy. He and Hannah are absolutely inseperable, and at any time of the night you’ll usually find them wrapped round each other, fast asleep.
As you can see, Woofy was born with a funny ear that sort of folds inwards, and no amount of fiddling with it can make it go the right way round: it always manages to tuck itself back in again.
Recently Hannah told us that in order to get a good night’s sleep you need a healthy supply of “wishes”. If you run out of wishes, that’s when you start having bad dreams. “And that’s why I love Woofy,” she said. “Because he keeps lots of wishes in his ear pocket.”
I honestly wish I could say I make this stuff up using the power of my imagination, but I don’t. You just can’t beat the real thing.
Makes perfect sense. The wonder of kids is that, all at once, they can be so imaginative and so logical.
happy birthday to Hannah!!!!
happy birthday to Lauren!!!!

Wow. A pocket full of wishes. I can already tell that my twin girls (on the way) will make me a blubbery mess for about … forever.
