The best dad I can be....

My favorite little human being is poorly. She's a little under the weather with a cough.
Last night she had a terrible nights sleep and I stayed with her while she would nod off anf wake up every so often upset and needing attention. We've been to see the doctor who as always was and is fantastic.
Anyway....That was this morning and this is now (8:00pm) and..earlier this evening I successfully managed to get her to sleep with a TTTE story some warm milk, teddy bear hot water bottle and big hugs from dad....and....well....she's now fast asleep.

I hate it when she's feeling low which isnt really very often thank goodness as she's usually full of energy and on top of the world. I did get her to do some painting earlier this afternoon (could only find the BIG set of six toooooo bright paints) so I started to teach her that mixing colours together in the two dishes etc with a little patience and trial and error can create all sorts of.......MESS.....ha ha ha ha
I think she did learn a little although in the end it was a case of daddy used a brush and she decided that finger painting was more fun......oh before I forget..."SORRY PUSS PUSS FOR THE WHITE SPLODGE OF PAINT THAT LANDED ON YOUR NOSE"
Thank goodness we have an understanding cat who just sat there staring at me as if it was ALL my fault.
It came off without a problem and having given Blue (my daughter named her that) a bowl of watered down banana flavoured milk shake and two or three....4 or 5.....chicken slices she was one happy cat.

Anyway...thats about it for today. I had planned to do some work on a presentation this afternoon for my course at college but I will have to do that later or in the morning.
I wont go into it....but my final two points are....firstly I have met a lady today who rocks my world and thats even before I really know her. I hope she wont mind me saying that but one look in her eyes and I was hooked...
The second point about the day was that I won £20 on a scratch card. I am not a gambling person but once in a while I like to take a chance on the cheapy £1 match 3 to win cards.
And today I managed to win....FOR ONCE!!!!

Anyway.....catch you later.
