"I saw a mouse,
Where?
There on the stair
Where on the stair?
Right there.
A little mouse with clogs on
Well, I declare
Going clip, clippity clop on the stair..."
Ok, so he doesn't have clogs on and he is only a prototype, but you get the idea!
Lyrics from 'A Windmill in Old Amsterdam' by Ronnie Hilton, 1965 which is one of my favourite childhood songs along with Mungo Jerry's 'Pushbike song' and Flanders & Swann's Hippopotamus Song "mud, mud, glorious mud..." Ah, memories!!
Thanks for all the good wishes for Mother's day (the UK one). I had a lovely quiet morning with breakfast in bed and some wonderful handmade cards - 2 from Amy and a sparkly one that Toby 'made' at school (I had a sneaking suspicion it was going to be sparkly when I found a load of sequins in his poo on Thursday!!)
Amy and I had great fun playing with the new Little Cotton Rabbit stamps. I just enjoyed trying them out and she made cards for her best friend and her boyfriend. Sorry, boyfriend?! I thought I'd have at least another year or two before this spectre appeared on the horizon but it seems that was wishful thinking, as her self portrait clearly shows!
And so begins the fascination with boys who only a short while ago were scorned as smelly and noisy. I think it may be largely due to the squeaky clean and wholesome male charms of Zac Efron (star of High School Musical)! Curse his dazzling smile!
On the knitting front there is still not much to report from me but if you'd like some knitted cuteness then please pop over and visit the brand new home of Oliver and Olivia where Shawn Mary is having a prize draw to celebrate the launch of her new website.
