Jack fell asleep early last night – before tea was ready – so I guess he’ll be hungry this morning (he’s not normally that bothered about breakfast). Eve greatly enjoyed the evening without Jack & was quite delirious before she fell asleep – shouty happy & completely & utterly bonkers. Louise was a bit worried about Jack but he was fine (I went up & checked & he was dreaming away. I showed her the ‘friends reunited‘ website as it’s something I’ve recently been looking at. I think it’s just middle-aged morbidity, but it’s also dead weird how people’s lives diverge. As my parents moved every 3 to 5 years or so I went to a few schools & my memory, although pretty good is not a precise tool – faces rather than names – that sort of thing – so a lot of names mean nothing to me… Louise obviously has a better memory for this sort of thing & amused herself for a few minutes – before Jack woke up & we had to call a halt.
It took him a little while to settle off again & I suspect that he may have been awake a little in the night as well as I remember him managing to wake me at some undisclosed hour asking whether it was morning yet? It’s pitch black – the World Service is on the radio… “No, not it’s still night time”.
Jack & Eve were both awake before I left yesterday morning, so they had both have had a long day – especially as they had not really been out because it was miserable (weather). Jack was more his usual self & he & Eve played together very well. They do as a rule – for instance Eve will quite happily pass Jack logo bricks for building – sharing & teamwork.
