Hello Petite Anglaise,

I am in the midst of reading your book and just passed the page where you reference “rue de Vaugirard” – when I was 15 my family and I were expats and lived in Paris for a year and lived in the 15 eme on rue de Vaugirard! I am truly enjoying the read, and thought I would look at your blog.”Mickey” was my secret name that year whenever my friends and I talked about my secret crush “Tatou”.

You seem to be quite the multi-tasker which I believe most of ous mummies are.

Bisous, Mickey

We used to say “You’re saying “Yes,Yes” to our mother. This rather than be caught out later doing something we knew she wouldn’t have allowed if she had been of sound mind.

Tadpole is so sweet – and so scarily bright!

My five-year-old, Ella, comes out with some gems too. I’m sure I wasn’t that perceptive as a kid…

So happy to see another post! I especially love tadpole posts :) I’m only 20 and kids are a long ways away, but I remember saying things of those nature to my mom when I was younger… I could always tell when she was just ‘hearing’ and not ‘listening’

Best of luck in 2009! I can’t wait for the next book and hope to see more posts. You should consider coming to the Canadian praries on a book tour :)

Broccoli? Why not go whole hog and add brussels sprouts? Or do you draw the line at having a gaggle of EU bureaucrats in for dinner?

Et le pire est à venir.
Le moment où elle utilisera sa capacité à détecter les moments où tu ne l’écoutes pas et où elle te dira :
- Mais bien sûr que tu savais, je te l’ai dit il y a trois jours sur le chemin entre l’école et la maison…
