The other day I showed Hannah and Lauren the beautiful dimples they both have right at the bottom of their backs, one each side of the spine. They had great fun tickling each other’s dimples until, as usual, it all spiralled out of control and the police had to be called.
This morning Hannah appeared in our bed in her heatwave-friendly birthday suit and stretched out on her tummy. Her hand went wandering over her back until she found her dimples but at this point she suffered a sudden vocabulary malfunction.
“Mummy,” she said, “did Daddy tell you we’ve got bottom nostrils?”
Hannah and Lauren went on a school trip last week (a day out at Lyme Park). Here is the list of things to take that Hannah brought home from school. (Click it for a bigger version.)
List for the trip
- Lunch
- bag
- thining caps (thinking caps)
- listening ears
- good manners
- treyners (trainers)
- coat (i.e. rain mac – it was baking hot)
- Bottle (i.e. of water)
- hat (it means sun-hat, although one of the girls tried to take a woolly bobble hat)
- Biran (brain)
- sunglasses
- books
- suncrim (sun cream)
It’s today, apparently, although I can’t find much on the web about it. Not that that will stop us getting a cake to celebrate tonight, though. If anyone’s marking World Twin Day I think we should. (Simon: your slice will be in the post.)
