    1. Thanks, V. I’ve been thinking about them so much over the holidays and enjoying their company. I wanted to introduce them and they were good to go with it. Actually, I’ve not asked MK or A or J! but I’m sure they’ll be fine. 🙂

  2. MK has a big enough head that she will love the publicity 🙂 And I agree, a very gorgeous family!

    1. Lol. Yo to you too! I’m glad you’re feeling a bit better today. You sounded in agony yesterday. I haven’t even been near the shops. Too miserable here to venture out….even by car. All cosied in for the night. toasty fire and candles. Love it. 🙂
      Thanks, Pete. They are great kids with hearts of pure gold so, yup, I guess that shows. 🙂 x

      2. Staying indoors and keeping cosy is about the only thing to do. The TV is garbage right enough. I’ve just sat and watched a programme about Top Of The Pops in 1979. A bit of historical perspective on what was going on politically at the time. Between the winter of discontent and Maggie I nearly hit the telly. No voice to shout at it. 😉 Take care, Pete. I hope the pain stays at bay as much as possible. Wire into the pain killers. 🙂 x

  5. Wow, what a crew!! What an age range there. I like the attitudes and the huge smiles. Well done, Scottishmomus, obviously some of your best poetry. 🙂

    1. Ach they’re a grand crew. But, I’ll tell you, Mark, much as teachers may or may not do it is really down to parents. Hmmm, think I’ll take a bow now. Lol. Seriously, hard job but ours to do. 🙂 x

  6. In my native tongue, we will say NWANYI KA IBEYA! This translates to a gem or treasure amongst other women 🙂
    The praise is not just in the birthing, but the patience and joy in nurturing. You are blessed!
    I’m full of envy believe it or not 🙂 I can not wait for my crew to be this grown and independent.
    I see the slight difference, I have three boys and four gals.
    NWANYI KA IBEYA!

    1. I’m going to learn that one. I like it. Thanks. Different sorts of concerns as they get older. But easier in other ways. Swings and roundabouts maybe. 😉 x

      1. Oh…was in the UK till 2009, London I adored for very strange reasons, but we simply could not afford my dream house there. Being a Texas gal,it took a while to get used to little spaces and things, but as soon as the kids came along;phew!

        I gave it about seventeen years, but when it was time, it was time. We still got the flat and family there and the children are too British in all their ways,so no escaping for anyone,lol
        It will always be home 🙂

      2. I’m curious about the ‘very strange reasons’ for adoring London. I don’t know it well. Been less than a dozen times maybe. I can imagine what the house prices must have been like if you were trying to buy something to accommodate a large family. Seventeen years was a long time then to keep going. But it’s great you’ve still got a place there and family. Not that I imagine you’ll be able to order those mattresses now from the UK. 😉
        And it must be a little weird then for everyone feeling and being so British but not being here. Educating the world to our ways now. 🙂 x

    1. I always tell them it’s more important to be beautiful inside. But I suppose it’s a bonus if you can have it both ways. They do make me proud. Or I’d skelp their arses. 😉 x

      1. Missed you too. We’ll all be back to normal soon. it’s an odd time of year altogether for keeping any sense of routine going. Happy New Year to you too, Oliana. Lovely train ride home I saw. 🙂 x

      2. Sounds busy. I’m hoping for a quick return to normal for the troops, myself included. Whether that happens is another thing. What’s normal? I don’t think I rightly know. 😉 x

    1. They’re a grand crew. We all get a bit fancified by our children from time to time. Christmas and New Year had me all melancholy and reflective and loving. Back to normal now. Keep them on their toes. Hugs with a dose of ‘don’t you dare’. 😉 x
