We went shopping yesterday to the large Tesco, a place we go to every 6 months and the kids love it as they generally get a toy and art supplies and clothes ect. It was crowded beyond belief and I had a couple of ladies get really annoyed with me ( serious anger management issues) On one thing I walked over to a jewerlery tower the ones that swing round and nobody was any where near it and looked at the first row and then slowly turned , as you do and a lady that appeared out of nowhere grabbed it and swung it back, so i just walked away, it was cheap junk anyway i was just looking but its hard not to get angry yourself, then k started his usual , Ummmm I have had enough now and want to go and work in the garden at home where it's QUIET and David came back with his usual , I can't find anything worth getting but i really want a toy and Shell walking behind him going But you are not 6 anymore blah blah blah .

This is when i have to stop and count to 10 and wonder why i came in the first place. The truth the clothes where fantastic, they had everything I wanted.

Anyways David ended up buying two dragons that come in their egg, and for some reason , my kids and Keith LOVE dragons, I don't get it, other than you could ride one, so then we got to the car and Shell had bought nothing as usuall deciding to keep her money , I had spent way to much, k was frowning and D was chuffed to bits. Michelle says to D can i please open one and he soooooo sweetly turns around and says sure Michelle thats why I bought two.

They spent the rest of sunday running around with one arm up in the air holding the dragon, they have names and a list of items that are needed for a long trip, they have dens in the garden and secret ones in the field, they even got up earlier this morning so they could play.

Which brings me to why I have written this whole story, My Michelle ....she is at such a funny , time in her life, she is so young and immature and yet with a flick of a switch she is a teenager and then with a flick of another switch she is a child again, I wonder at the teaching a older women would give at this time. her baby smell is gone and in it's place a stronger smell that my body and nose don't like ! I feel guilty and mad at her all at the same time and keep thinking these next few years are going to be VERY interesting.

I know what you mean with Michelle but it will go on for along time hopefully forever. Genevieve still turns into a child and so do you at times.
