Mixed blessings
Got called to my daughter's school on Thursday - she'd had a fall from a climbing frame onto her back. Although she was moving I took her to the hospital to get her checked out, and they lay her on a trolley, slapped a collar on her and rushed her into resuss to check her out and xray her. They kept telling her not to move, so I was bricking it. They told me it's pretty rare for young children to break their necks, but it's also quite difficult to spot on an xray, and as she was mnoving and not in screaming agony it was probably not broken but I should watch for any unusual symptoms for the next couple of days! Cue anxious mother overdrive!

So we've spent a couple of days at home not doing much exercise, and she's seriously got cabin fever! We have to go out tomorrow! I have never played so many board games in my life! I've also been run off my feet indulging her (my choice - I'd be peeling her grapes if we had any).

On the plus side, we've had the time to get back into the fairy grotto - painted an elf and we're part way through a toadstool house. She's been helping me paint - she's getting very precise - and we've spent a lot of time together.

I'm trying out one of the sponsored layouts - seems pretty fab
