Only words

Emma received her first immunisation shot today. Bit of a drama, because normally Lill would go to the Health Nurse for a baby's first injection, but the Council have cut this out, and therefore Lill had to go to the local immunisation centre and waited up to an hour before Emma had her shots. Just another of those services the Council thinks the community can do without (Grrrrr!).

Sarah and Jessica have learned the word "Stupid", and are using it on each other, and others they come into contact with. I must admit, this is quite tame compared to the stories I've heard about what kids have said in public with their parents in tow, but best to nip this now. I remember when the twins first started to speak, someone had accidently uttered the word, "$hit", and they picked up on it fast and used it to their heart's content! And when they go to kindergarden, they'll be exposed to more words and more attitudes, and I'd rather arm my girls with some decorum and protocols with regards to social behaviour. Listen to me, spouting pop psychology! Well, pop psychology or not, I care about how my girls turn out in this world, and it's our job as parents to do our best!!!

ODD SPOT: A kiss will stimulates 29 muscles and chemicals causing relaxation. Women seem to like kissing light and frequent; men like it more strenuous.

P.S: I've been told with lips like mine who needs airbags!!!
