I was just sitting here at the PC when Flynn started playing with an orange and my work keypass which he just got out of my handbag - he is so intensely fascinated by both that I just had to stop and watch him.

And I thought - I wonder if I will watch this new baby with the same fascination? When Flynn is the oldest of our three (fingers crossed!) children and is learning to draw or use scissors, will I watch him with the same fascination even though I have two others to care for?

Please tell me these moments don't lose their magic when you have more than one child.......
