Far out MD, what a rollercoaster of emotions you must have been going through! How the heck do you explain to an almost 4 year old that they're not seeing Daddy for a week?? I can't imagine.

Ginger - I'm sure L will be fine, hope the waiting list isn't too long. I've always had a bit of a suspicion that DH has a bit of sleep apnea.

Trill - hugs for running into the dog.

Cass - hope you've recovered from your road rage incident!

4th birthday - bike, helmet, dolly nappies, Miffy and Hairy MacLary books. Suggestions to family members have been those dolls that are just heads that you play with their hair or a kite - and the usual books. It's not going to be a big one. We actually haven't had many requests - those that we have had have been more directed at Santa.

Beautician appointment tomorrow. Miss K has expressed a great desire to come and watch so that might be interesting.
