I love Amelie more than I did yesterday because she lost another baby tooth today and we had a very long discussion about the tooth fairy - before the tooth came out, she said that if it fell out in the night, would the tooth fairy still know to come (Mummy - "No, you would need to tell Mummy and Daddy because they have to use the special tooth fairy phone to call up the tooth fairy and let her know to come visit"). Then when it did come out and Mummy, learning from previous experience, wrapped it up into a large packet of tissue for easy access later, Amelie said "You will tell the tooth fairy to expect a large tissue parcel rather than just a small tooth won't you and tell her that it's OK to take the tissue away with her".
I love Seth more than I did yesterday because it was his first school sports day today - where the boys worked in teams rather than individually, and Seth was absolutely excellent at things like throwing and jumping. He completely threw himself into every event and loved every moment - to the extent that when they announced the winning team at the end, and it wasn't Seth's, he burst into tears because he was so sure that they had done the very best of anyone. He clearly has a competitive spirit - but hopefully gets over his inability to lose graciously!
And here is a picture of him trying the hardest he possibly could in the 'torch relay' race.
