Learning things
- Over the past couple of days, Jo's learnt to read. It really is that simple. She's just got it. She's started spelling out words from their sounds - she knows almost all of the alphabet - and yesterday we were reading Hug by Jez Alborough as she went to bed. There are only three words: "Hug", "Bobo", and "Mummy", but she read an entire book on her own. I was so proud I could almost cry. And since then, she's just kept with it. She worked out "Bus" from the signs on a bus lane in Cambridge today, she's read another book (this one is "Yes", by Jez Alborough). Very proud.
- Today I learnt that if you're washing a baby-sicked sweat-shirt, you should really turn the hood inside out first.
A good day in Cambridge: Jo loved the bus.

I wonder if my lot can read yet?
Seriously though well done Jo- and mum and dad, they don't do these things without love and encouragement.

Hey we were in Cambridge Sat too. You should let us know next time you are there so we can meet up and meet Miri. Hope you steered clear of the new John Lewis. Nightmare
