Hi, Daddy is home after a long time in Sri Lanka working - it is great to have him here again: every morning me and mummy and daddy have a big cuddle together- although I do tend to get tickled a lot too! I have been a good boy recently - it's official - dad says so. This week I've been swimming, to the butterfly place (there's monkeys and other animals too), to the zoo (with large tigers and lions) and. of course, each morning to the garderie - where I play with my friends. The weather has been poo (hahahaha!) - mum's word not mine - with lots of rain and wind. The other day Ciara and I painted some stars on my bedroom wall with a sponge-thing - they are cool. I also now have some stars on my cieling which only show up when my light is turned off at bedtime; everynight daddy cuddles me and asks me to count them, but I have not succeeded completely yet as I doze off to sleep (is this a parental ploy?) Mum plays with me every evening when she gets home from work in Bern - I tell her very loudly and enthusiastically of my day - good and bad. I tell mummy that she is my friend - and she is (the best friend anyone could ever have). Bye, must go to Bern to the English playgroup.
