Things I love Thursday ♥

The weather was better this week, everyone was in a better mood, and kids start to come out of having a cold ♥ Though it is still good to have a cup of hot cinnamon and cherry tea ♥ Or a nice warm pot of chilli beef soup with chickpeas from Pret ♥ It was good to see Richard's family at the weekend, and it is really good that Grandma could see all her great grandchildren. It is especially good that Benji and Robin have 3 great grandmas! ♥ I love that Benji can so honestly be happy when he manages to do something alone, like putting his shoes on alone, or taking his jumper off. Then he comes to us with a proud grin on his face telling what a big boy he is, and smiles so proudly when we praise him ♥ This week I noticed in Robin that he loves being a little clown. He enjoys when he notices something we laugh at, then he keeps repeating the same thing until he gets the same reaction and he laughs laughs with us in enjoyment. For example he keeps doing his on purposely grumpy look as he noticed that everyone without exception laughs at him then, from bus drivers to cashiers. But it is undersandable as it IS really funny. Or when he is standing in the bath, leans down, puts his face in the water, makes a loud gurgling sound, then lifts his head up, looking at us with his wet face and dripping eyelashes, his face covered in foam bubbles. He continues this until we laugh. Or in the morning he entertains Benji in car by taking his little toy (which hangs from the window) in his mouth and shakes it like a dog. Benji can't stop laughing when he sees that. Then Robin looks at him, gives him a secret grin, then continues until Benji stops laughing. I just love them. ♥ Benji nowadays goes to Robin when he cries and says "Its all right Robin I am here now, Its all right" ♥♥ And it is fun how a box of our new dustbin caused hours of fun for them
