Leila Rose Petal

Finn and Leila are in Finn’s room. I can’t see what they’re doing, but this is what I can hear.

Finn - Ta?

Leila - Ta!

Finn - Gooood!

That’s sooo funny!! by Nicky P

Dear Leila,

You’re not officially ten months old until tomorrow and normally I would spend a couple of weeks thinking about writing this update before actually doing, but you’ve achieved some milestones in the last couple of days that are begging to be recorded. We’ll get to them in a minute.

You may notice that my writing style for this update is a bit different. If fact it’s a direct steal from here. I think it sounds much friendlier than the way I’ve been writing your monthly updates. Don’t expect me to keep it up for four years, though. You’ll be lucky if I manage to write the same way two months running. But enough about me writing about you. Let’s get back to me actually writing about you.

In the last month you’ve continued to be the happy, beautiful presence in our life that you’ve been for the previous nine. You are a complete joy to your Dad and I and I’m putting it in writing now because I know I will need to be reminded of it down the track. We are very, very glad we decided to do the parent thing a second time. Read the rest of this entry »
