My littlecub turned 5 on Saturday, and it was so strange because she was born on a Saturday. I kept feeling echoes of the day of her birth, even tho life is so different now. Not least because she is a middle cub now, and so spritelike and adorable around her tinycub baby brother. And I start to see shades of her elegant bigcub big sis, all grown-up at 10, travelling the world and sensible and serious. Yeah right, she has a streak of silly a mile wide in her too!
So Saturday was quiet to start and builds up to more activity.
Sunday was busier from the start but not stressful either.
Saturday:
Good: how littlecub takes time to examine and if possible play with each gift as it is unwrapped, no rushing to see what's next.
Bad: bigcub a bit spiteful, having gotten used to more attention when away recently
Notable: fabulous meal out at local Hiunanese place.
Sunday:
Good: Taste of India, bigcub serving again, making progress on finding a date for tinycub's Christening.
Bad: hearing of a friend's dog being savaged, rain when we want to be out in sun, realising I have a missing usb stick.
Notable: abba in Hindi, chilli chips, Thums Up, circussy installation play.
This is how it works. It's short and sweet (rather like me!) I'm MamaWolf, I have 3 cubs, and there is a delightful PapaWolf. There are other people in our "pack" too, but we'll get to them when we get to them. Every day we'll have 3 things: What was good today What was bad today Something remark-worthy. Every day. I want to remember and I want to share. Come along and join in...

A birthday weekend
Saturday, 7 April 2012
apologies for hiatus
Life, nosy baby, desire to feed on demand etc. Sadly blogs get last priority.
So here we are a week of Easter hols done.
Good: Woburn Safari Park, Little Cub and the BabyCub, PapaWolf and me. Lovely day out. Leaping lemurs, sneaky squirrel monkeys, dinner at Giraffe.
Bad: depression rears it's ugly head in the family again, BabyCub teethes and fevers. BigCub went away to Singapore, unnaccompanied, I was all choked, she was fine and is having a whale of a time (OK, that's good, but I feel sad too!)
Notable: Boyden's Kitchen opened. Great cafe, food, people, activities planned, it's just what the area has been needing, I am really excited about it!
So, what were your Good/Bad/Notables? Comment and share...
