It's half term for two weeks so I won't get much time to post. I will be going out a lot and doing lots of visiting. I took the kids to our local farm today. My son was as usual very aware of the animals and took a lot of persuasion to go near any of them. Whereas my very nearly 2 year old daughter wanted to touch anything and everything. Before I could stop her she decided to put her hand into the chickens to say hello, they said hello back (much to her horror) when one pecked her hand.
The animals were very good and moo'ed, oink'ed or baa'ed right on cue when we got to them. We had a very enjoyable morning and we may go back on Sunday to milk the goats and make ice cream.
