They may be small, but man do the mini Clogs pack a punch. Cathy's two sproglets were over last week with her and the hubby – now aged 5.5 and 2.5 (the kids, that is..).
Blonde and babbling away in Dutch at all times, unless it's to release the only magic phrase that Lily thinks it actually is worth saying into the lesser language of English: 'Auntie Scotty please may I play on your IPad?' Which did keep her quiet for a while the night we babysat – until she fell off the bar stool and cracked her head, somehow still holding the undamaged IPad aloft, good girl.
So here they are in all their pale-skinned glory – and you're lucky to be spared the video of them bouncing up and down on me at 6.30am – clearly 'Ride a Cock Scotty to Banbury Cross while Uncle Hawksey smirks from his unattacked side of the bed' is a Dutchie favourite.
The big one is Lily and the small one is Daisy…. aaah.
And then finally there's one of Granny – or Mum – depending who you are. Getting her prezzy from Daughter No.1 ….. Happy 84th Mum!
