I had a lovely time last night : )
« on: May 17, 2011, 19:44 »
We had torrential rain all day yesterday and the girls stayed out in it all day.  By bed time they were soaking wet.  Thought I can't let them go to bed like that so decided to bring them in 1 at a time to towel dry them.  Baby was 1st and she loved it.  Even settled on my knee watching telly.  Next came Rose and then the big girl Maj.  Don't think they enjoyed it as much as Baby but didn't make much fuss at all.  Just a few mutters and mumbles under their breathes but I thoroughly enjoyed it and wish it was wet again tonight.  :lol:  :lol:

Mine don't have razor blades or droppings but think that's because they are mostly on slabs.  Just love the way they wrap their toes round my fingers or hand.  :D
