Sniff, Blub!

Big day for Little Miss Emily today: she's gone off on her first weekend away wihout us. Well, I say without us, she's been away with grandparents before, but never off on her own thing with her friends. But the day had to come and at tea-time, we packed her off to Brownie Camp. There was a lot of kicking, screaming, crying, stamping of feet; but in the end she said "Mum, I've got to go, will you get a grip?!".

Like I say, she's got her friends there. Anna's mum took them so she had a friend to travel up there with:

I'm sure she'll have great fun, especially as the packing list that Brown Owl sent home included cake and sweets as necessary items!

So, another what's seeming like all too frequent chapter in 'oh how fast they grow'. Hope she's having fun and this mummy here can make it through the next 48 hours!
