The Baby-Snatcher*

Wake up at seven thirty after going to sleep at six o’clock last night.

Go for a walk with Mum up to the house martins’ house. We stand in front of the nests and it’s a magical experience: the little birds swoop and dive all around us and we can hear the chicks chirping in their mud nests under the beams.

Katie from the synagogue comes for her every-two-weeks visit: it is so good to see her.

Then Dad takes me to visit my darling cousin and her new very pretty baby:

It is great to see her enjoying motherhood and being so happy and relaxed.

We have a tour around her lovely new house too.

Return for lunch and sleep. Don’t manage to sleep for that long. Have bath 🛁 and then have supper in the garden in the sunshine.

Fluffball comes in and sucks up a fur ball. Then he has his supper. Now he’s come in to look after me. I’m so lucky to have my precious boy: we really did think we’d lost him forever, back in October. Thank G-d we found him 🥰.

Happy Wednesday everyone!
