Ava is the bees knees! Exactly the little scruffy sweetheart that I was looking for to fill that big gap on my desk. She’s well loved and taken care off. Apart from myself, my girls love her to bits and try to trick me out of her ownership. I’m thinking that she might get some company later in the year when special days are coming up.

And oh, my four year old marvelled at your ‘house’ cookies. Apparently they were ‘art’ that needed to be on display in our shelf and nobody was allowed to eat them. They’ll be up here until they get moldy.

I hope this new year will be one of wonder for you and your loved ones!
