I think that Thursdays are usually the best day of the week for me. I have just finished my two days of work for the week and face the prospect of five days with the boys. This Thursday after getting a few jobs out of the way we set out for the boys' favourite park. We spent a delightful few relaxing hours there. The boys played with other children in the park. Oliver took a fancy to the sunglasses that this boy was wearing.
Oliver was standing dreamy-eyed at the top of a play structure.
He has just started to become interested in the colour of everyone's eyes and likes to comment on this.
William found another little boy named Seth to play with. They took turns in building and demolishing birthday cakes from sand. They decorated the cakes with twigs and the three boys sang Happy Birthday.
William loves to mimic the words and actions of older boys.
Here he was just gearing up for a sand-flinging contest.
I could see him poised with a handful of sand but he smiled at me sweetly and let fly with the sand.
Both he and Seth ended up covered in sand.
They all had a lovely time.
After the boys sleep we went to Mothers' Group at Nicole's house for the afternoon. She had made a divine Claudia Roden Orange Cake which was moist and delicious. All of the mums sat lingering over a glass of wine, chatting while the children played. It was a relaxing afternoon.
