Ha ha! its a mum thing.

Im dont have asthma. Im asthmatic.

And cutting my hair short in the same style as my brothers DID make it grow through thicker of course.

hmmmmm.

Have to make sure DD wears socks or slippers when MIL is around as you DO get a chill in your kidneys if you walk round barefoot on a cold floor.

oo forgot one

DD is obviously a little clingy .. she's had a horrible time with people poking and prodding her and is poorly

Mum says

don't let her get too clingy now, you'll never be able to put her down
... no mum

Blimey, so would I! Glad Twiglette is on the mend, and sorry she was so sick in the first place. Hope she's bouncing back fast.

ps my Mum: 'don't eat the ends of bananas, flies lay eggs in them!' Bananas, hmmmm...

Mothers hey? I think it was you who said Twig that our mothers know how to press our buttons since they installed them. True, true. Is your dd ok? (I assume she must be or you wouldn't be here!)

But Twiglett didn't your mum used to chuck you outside in your pram or to play in all weathers ?
Mine did.

And my little brother did get bronchitis when he was a few weeks old.
