Post by Anna, from a few weeks ago.

This is Anna here, as Mammy is still away in hospital and she asked me to do a guest post. So here we go!

Well, as you know, Mammy is gone for a few days so Daddy is here minding us. We were told we could be in charge of the cooking, so we went for it!

We did a Tesco shop and lets say Grandma was surprised to see what was in the cupboard - lots of junk food. We saw no point in getting healthy stuff when we could choose whatever we wanted!!

Although, the deal was, the younger ones had to have their 5-a-day (my parents couldn't cope with all the junk food otherwise!) so I printed out some charts and got them some stickers.

They're doing well, I think!?! They particularly like the farm stickers we got. Not sure whether it's the stickers or the chocolate bar at the end of the week that they are more motivated by. Anyhow, they seem to love it.....

We went to see Mammy yesterday, it is a bit crazy here without her around. At least it's only a few days.

Although the idea of kinda being in-charge at first made me feel slightly sort of looking forward to it, I have to say it's not as fun as I thought it would be. There's a lot of clearing up after the younger ones have eaten and put tomato ketchup everywhere!

I really miss having Mammy here as she is always there to listen to your feelings about life, and just to chat too. I have realized how much I enjoy her company.

At least Daddy is here. He is trying his hardest. Saying that I still HATE it!!!

Amber is always there to listen to all my gobble-de-gook. She likes to plonk herself on my lap. And let me pet her for hours on end!

I hope that was an OK post, on my blog I am always writing about the dogs (which I have to admit is much easier) and it's weird writing about how you feel about stuff.

Trying to convince Daddy to go and see Mammy again.

Goodbye,
Anna
