The strangest thing just happened for the second time... Jen was just here for a visit, and we sat and chatted for a while over a couple of cups of coffee and then Jen was on her way and I saw her to the door and suddenly Bryn came running up behind us crying, and indicated that he really didn't want Jen to leave. This has happened once before when he was about 9-10 months old... I wonder if it was because Jen was one of my doulas and at his birth and therefore he's formed some sort of attachment from then (and since then we've seen Jen most weeks, sometimes two or three times a week), and so in a way he views her as family!!! And, he was upset for a solid five minutes after she left and had to have booby for comfort! There you go, Jen, Bryn obviously loves having you around!!!

Then this morning I followed a link from Twitter to Toushka Lee's blog and read this post about an elephant orphanage in Sri Lanka.
This morning the Grumpy Old Man did another driving test and unfortunately didn't pass. We've booked his next test and are looking forward to that now. About ten minutes before he walked in the door I saw this poster on Facebook...
At the time, I didn't know if the Grumpy Old Man had been successful or …
