It's Hard to Get Mad When...


...they are working together so well to avoid bedtime. It was a bit too quiet upstairs, after a bit of bumping around, so I checked and found them drawing away. Of course, the moment I turn up, they both smile innocently, hold out their half-finished works of art, and say, "For you, Mama." Frankly, I find it hard to halt Benjamin's efforts - he draws and writes so rarely, I want to encourage it!

Incidentally, Christopher has now mastered the 11 letters of his name, but Benjamin (who is two years older) refuses to write all 9 of his. He now wants to be known as Benji, spelled BEN-G.
And now it is time to turn out the lights...
