[A Small World]

Good Evening everyone

Evening all.

I also wouldn't pay too much attention to a Speech and Language referral. There is a great push at the moment to get youngsters communicating better, so if in doubt they refer - 'they' are worried about the number of children starting school at 4 or 5 who can't talk or make their needs known at all.

Some reports have shown that increasingly numbers of children are hardly ever spoken to (I can't imagine any of us chatty lot on the DIS boards are guilty of this!) - some parents dont realise that they have to speak to their children to teach them to speak. The authors of one report found that a common attitude was "they'll teach them all that when they get to school" It does make you wonder what that sort of person has a baby for - something pretty to push round in a pushchair perhaps?

People that think that must be very naive and stupid.

Oooh i havent made cakes for ages, it's not the same when they reach teenage years. The last thing they want to be doing is baking cakes

Its shocking!

That just reminded me of when I was at the Disney Store a few weeks ago getting my DD birthday presents and there was 2 teenage girls about 14 cooing over the baby clothes in they were talking about having a baby so they could buy the cute clothes, I felt like directing them to the doll they sell in there for them to dress!

I am taking DD to see Bolt next week during half term, she loves Disney films about animals so I am sure it will be a big hit. Shes not that into princesses apart from ariel and I think that is probably because she is friends with fish!

I hate baking too, I am a disaster at it and make a right mess. I baked a cake last year with DD and got the mix all over the cupboard doors!

I've just had a shock, checked the £/$ dollar rate as i have been out all day and it's plummeted. It was at 1.48 the other day and i was waiting for it to hit 1.50.

Evening all, boy I'm glad to be home and sitting on the sofa. I nearly crashed my car today!! Stupid black ice, my car skidded this morning and I managed to slide sideways down the road and stopped just before the roundabout!

 

[Cyrano]

The only word he has trouble pronouncing is 'Sorry', but I find that a common trait in most men!

Excuse me we can say the word . We just use it in a different context.
Just the other day I said to OH "I am sorry that you do not understand that I am always right"

OMG, thank goodness you're ok (and your car)

Glad you've had a good day. Am thinking of taking Louise to go see Bolt next Tuesday (when Adam's at nursery) and then go to Yo Sushi for lunch after that. A nice girly day out - we haven't had one for quite a while now.

If we dont go friday we will probably go Tuesday or Wednesday. Might go and watch it early at Bluewater then do a bit of shopping up there after. Kill 2 birds with 1 stove lol.

Sounds just like Robert! His standard reply is: "I'm sorry you feel that way."... In the words of Will and Grace, the apology has the word 'sorry' in it, but it doesn't actually apologise!!
