Erica celebrated her birthday on 15 February with this cake!
Erica’s birthday cake, beautifully made by our daughter. Allegedly the figures are members of the family.
Erica and I drove to Coventry on Friday evening to attend the UK Training Institute Tutors’ Conference. Of course (of course?) we went via Northampton so that I could meet our new granddaughter, Maya, for the first time.
Erica, lucky thing, had said hello to Maya a few days before. So I got to hold Maya, who fell asleep in my arms (after a bit of wriggling and complaining) and slept for a good hour.
Health warning: I’m about to bore the pants of non-grandparents.
Sorry, I can’t help myself, but I have to say that she is really lovely – she doesn’t look a bit like Winston Churchill. However, she is giving her parents a hard time. She’s demanding to be fed about once every hour and Vicky and Tom are exhausted.
I assured them that it will get better. Until, that is, Maya enters her teens…
