On this day in 1999, Mon Ange ou Demon arrived in my life to make me laugh and ..smile.
She is 9 today and sang "Happy..Bert-dai" with me this morning. Then we counted 9 kisses.
(then we disagreed about wearing a party dress, she went into school in her H&M Tee-dress as usual)
As you know I rarely post photos of the real "us" but this happy snap lives on top of the dresser outside her room, and cannot be moved. Or else she says "I Want - Mummy and ----"
And I think it captures exactly how I feel about her.
A scan of a laminated snap from her "flash cards" set. I wish I had the original but alas..
So wish my Bratty a happy 9th Bert-dai.
Now I have to put on my pinny and go ice an Oswald Cake for her school party.

And then happy, happy bday to little Virgo Bratty. Give her hugs and llama kisses from me.
I also send Hammie a HUGE virtual bouquet just because… If it was me, I would probably choose heavily sensed tiger lilies, but it’s YOUR bouquet, YOUR choice!
And to top it all, Hammie, I send you a Nan’s big HUG for posting the photo. You look Brill! Pity we don’t see more!… Don’t rule out the modelling yet, girl! ;-)
Cannot believe I made that cake; phew. Took me all morning and I still have blue hands.
We brought him home and gave him dermabrasion with a knife dipped in boiling water to heal up all the candle marks and thumb holes; then played with it all over again. This show will run and run.
Thankyou too; to all of you who wished me a Happy Birth Day. I am feeling more upbeat about Bratty this year than ever. Sure; we don't even have the typical milestones in sight anymore. But we are looking at our own goals now and feeling good.

Happy birthday to Bratty.
