This weekend Mr WF and I are giving parenthood a go. We are looking after the 3 children (aged 7, 11 &13) of our old housegroup leaders in London so that they can go away for a romantic weekend (for the first time since they've had kids!).

I managed to persuade the 7 yr old boy to eat his dinner by telling him jokes from the Animal Joke Book throughout. It was as painful as it sounds. I wont even stoop so low as to give you an example.

Tomorrow, whilst Mr WF is doing football-related activities with the boy. The girls and I are going to make sock animals. I'll post some pictures next week so you can see what we made.

Time to go and do bedtimes now. Hopefully it will be a quiet night!
