I may post a picture of my squished faced little 'Star' having seen your cheery characters. I enjoyed the nativities this year, it was Zac's first - there was a fellow nursery child who was brilliant, I was seriously impressed by this 3 year old girl who had obvious talent despite her tender years. My boy looked quite serious throughout but did attempt all the actions ;-)<br /><br />Are you actually as tall and willowy as your blog makes you appear, or is it 'trick cameras'?

Chuckling is perfectly normal behaviour, although I personally think that "Eeyore" and "Dopey" look rather cute; Perm Girl - mmmm yes, I see what you mean.<br /><br />I'm "bad mummy" extraordinaire today. I sneaked out of Year 6's Xmas concert. It was a bit boring if truth be told and the school orchestra's version of Walking in the Air was the straw that broke the camel's back. Oh dear!<br /><br />The dress, btw, is fab. I do like a good midi. xxLoo xx from Jumbles and Pompomshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13570354905749566677noreply@blogger.com
