"I don't want breakfast, I just want to play!"

Maisie had a busy week ahead of her and so needed to start the day with a good breakfast. However Maisie was refusing her cereal as there were too many other things to do.

The theme of visitors and cuddles continued on Monday; Penny popped around to see Maisie using the excuse that she was looking at Mummy's garden.

Then Mrs Arroll from next door dropped in with no excuse needed - she just loves a cuddle from Maisie.

And the visitors kept coming;
Aunty Eleanor and Uncle Carl were missing Maisie so made up the excuse of bringing material for Maisie's Baptism gown.
Mummy is going to make Maisie's gown out of material left over from Gran's wedding dress - it's going to be so beautiful and make Maisie look so pretty on her special day.

going to make another grab for her

Uncle Carl and Aunty Eleanor spent the afternoon inbetween drinking cups of tea fighting over who was going to give Maisie cuddles.

"Yuk!"

It was such a busy day there was hardly time for a nap before dinner. Maisie was excited as Daddy had made his special spaghetti bolognese which Maisie had heard so much about - everyone loves it!

But, much to everyone's amusement, particularly Brian (yes yet another visitor squeezed in) Maisie didn't like Daddy's spag bol. In fact she rather objected to it and spat it out.

Tuesday was set aside to practice Maisie's home work as the physio was coming the next day to check that she'd been working hard on her excercises. The community nurse visited and was suitably impressed with Maisie's improvement saying that she thought the physio would be very happy.


Wednesday came very quickly and so it was the physio's visit; Daddy made sure that Maisie was fed, watered and had even taken a wee nap so that she would be fresh to show off all her new skills.

The physio arrived and was "Delighted" with Maisie's progress, she's going to write a letter to the consultant telling him how well Maisie has done.

After a thorough workout with the physio Maisie took some well deserved time out to relaxed and watch the chickens running around the garden with Daddy.

"are you sure there are chickens in our garden Daddy?"

It was a busy week so far with a visit to the eye doctor still to come
