Anyone for Tea?

I've found this tea from a Company called Aveda who are a UK Co. and it's delicious.....caffeine free so ideal for evenings on a winter's night. It's organic which I like and is called Comforting Tea - it has a strong taste of licorice root and peppermint leaf, sounds worse than it tastes believe me!

Where's Alley Mumma!



Boncie asked today 'Where's my cat Alley'? It's been almost a month since Alley died and Boncie's only just realised he's missing!

We told him that Alley died and that he won't be coming back. This may sound blunt but we wanted to be honest with him when he asked. We didn't do the whole cat in the sky thing as we are not religious but when he's a little older and understands we'll explain that lots of people have various views on what happens when you die, but until he's old enough to make up his own mind on death, we thought we best be honest and to the point.

Boncie said 'I want my Alley, I love him'. Poor little fella, he doesn't quite get death, however he does understand that Alley's not coming back.

Mr Men

Boncie is loving MR Men, he insists we read him the books he has and loves watching the Mr Men DVDs. His fave. at the mo. is Mr Tickle - he loves him so much he takes the book to bed with him. Each day we purchase a new Mr Men book to add to his collection - soon he'll have all 46 of them!

Who's Your Daddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boncie thought both of these pics. were of him!! However one is Poodle - my boys look so much alike!
