Sand in my socks!

Another lap of the sun and another year older for all of us, but namely today the youngest in our family, little Finley Arthur. Finn’s come a long way in his two years and is now speaking in short sentences, but usually starting with “duggee, hey daddy duggee, is duggee daddy, look!”.

In order to spur him on further we have a range of books for him this year, as well as a little wooden construction set and an indoor tuff tray. Loved by parents and builders alike, the tuff tray really helps to keep things tidied together, to this morning there’s been a lot of construction work going on in the front room.

It likely means that I will be finding sand in my socks for the next few weeks (or months) but you never know, it just might be worth it!

  A book at bedtime

  Posted on 17 October 2018 in Blog

  Back at home, our eldest Indiana is now just over 5 years old. Of course, while this has brought skinned knees and elbows, bruises and stories of adventures in the (actually quite well equipped) playground at school, I’m pleased to say he’s also started to foster a joy of reading.

  A Spanish Galleon

  Posted on 06 January 2020 in Blog

  Reading the local English paper, they had a picture of a replica Spanish Galleon that would be moored in Malaga harbour. So, Sunday morning with fine weather off we go down the old mountain road to Malaga.
