Ceremony

hi everyone

well, today was James's penultimate day at his daycare thingie for the year. as tomorrow is marked for being short and the scene of their Christmas Party, James had an early birthday party there today. here is one of the better pics i managed to take of the most excellent first birthday cake Michele picked out for him :




we, the parents, even got a slice of it! a rather nice vanilla-butter number it was. smart!!

as for the design, James holds both Tigger and Barney in great affection, mostly as he has toys which make a noise of both of them. Winnie, bless him, just sits there and does not make a noise.

on that subject, James is having great fun with two toy cats i have bought Michele over the years. he has clocked that when he hits them they make a noise; a cat-esque "miaow" for the record, if you will. it tends not to go down quite so well when he tries this trick on our two real cats, and often we have to be ready with all the verve and dexterity of a bomb disposal expert to make sure he does not get scratched. still, the look on his face when he tries is well worth it - refer to my earlier posts in which a certain look in his eyes has been compared to Dr Hannibal Lecter and Max Cady.

be excellent to each other!!!!
