Conversation at the Dinner Table

Aimee: "My Daddy is the best daddy"
Nana: "Yes he is, I think he's a wonderful Daddy to you girls"
Aimee: "He's the best man"
Nana: "well, I think Grumps is the best man and then your daddy"
Aimee: "Here's the order of things, first my daddy then grumps because Daddy can make spaghetti and pancakes and grumps can't"
Grumps: "but i can make creme brulee"
Aimee: "but i don't like it so my daddy is the best"
Aimee: "and the mummies, now let me think, that's harder"
Nana: "first mummy and then nana"
Aimee: " but you make the best fishcakes. oh, but mummy makes pikelets so she is first then you"
Nana: "i don't think i'll try to make pikelets."

  2. Hi Jess and Aimee!

    It sounds like you are having lots of very nice food there. I think your grumps is giving your dad a run for his money if he can make creme brulee, yum!
    It was Tim's birthday on the weekend we had lots of fun he had to play games for hours and hours to get his presents.
    I like your seeds you are growing, they look really cool.
    When you get back I can give you some radish seeds if you like and you can grow some of those
    Love Nicky

  3. hahaha - ok Aimee - i`ll try and make piklets like Nana does when i get home.

    Thank you Jessica, we qre hqving q lovely time in the place where we are.

    We are missing you both lots too; but that:s ok cos we know we will still see you again when we get home.

    Today we are in Paris. We haven:t seen much of it yet cos we stopped to find some co,puters to write to you. it is very difficult tho cos all the letters qare in different places!!!

    It is nice thqt you love me more than Nana Aimee, but i donĂ¹t mind if you love Nana more while I am away cos she does make really good fish cakes!

    We have still only bought you two presents each; but we also have q couple of extrqs for you to share. We might buy qnother today =)

    ok darlings. i love you both very much.

    love mummy

  4. Hi Girls,

    We are in paris now. We are about to go and visit the Eiffel Tower. It is really tall and made of metal. We saw it from the plane as we flew into Paris yesterday evening. It looked very pretty. I'm sure Nana and Grumps will be able to find a picture for you :)

    It sounds like you are having lots of yummy food. I'm very glad youthink I am the best daddy and man. I think you are the best two little girls ever. I am also glad you like my spagetti bolognaise so much :) I'll have to make us some when I get back home. I tried some in Italy but thought mine was better :) I can also make us pancakes for breakfast in the weekend when we get back home.

    We had a lovely time in Italy - Rome, Florence and Venice were all really lovely. Well - Venice and Florence were lovely and Rome was interesting. I am definitely going to miss Venice and Florence. I wish I could live there for a while :)

    Simon and Marjo have now gone home again so it is just mummy and me on our holiday now. I really enjoyed getting to spend time with them again - its been a really great holiday with them. I'm going to miss them :(

    I am loking forward to seeing some of Paris though. There is the Eiffel tower to see, and the Louvre, Musee Dorset, notre dame, and the Arc de Triumph (I'm not sure I spelt that right). We are going to try to wander past them all today for a look at the outside. Tomrro we will go into the Louvre and the Musee Dorset and look at paintings.

    I love you both lots and I look forward to seeing you again soon. I love you every dday and every night :)

    love Daddy

  5. no, no, she thinks you are the best because you make pikelets and i don't (well, that's what she thinks and i wouldn't want to try to usurp your place so I won't make her pikelets in case she changes her mind)

  6. oops - i meant i'll try and make fishcakes =). And I was trying to say it's ok if you do make pikelets and she changes her mind.
