  • Another classic comment

    Ok so here’s another one for the archives. Maddie accidentally knocked her elbow on Mollys head. In this instance Maddie came off worse. A few tears and magic rubs later and she was fine, so I said that perhaps she should see if Molly was alight too. Without batting an eyelash she replied, “I can’t…

  • Growing Up

    I guess when we look back this photo will be one of the defining childhood shots. Maddie is certainly growing up. She is also being particularly cute at the moment coming out with phrases like “I miss you when you go to work Daddy” followed by “I like the weekend because you are here with…

  • Learning to talk
