Dominic is one today. I can hardly believe that a year ago I was holding a newborn infant in my arms and today he was crawling around, putting everything in sight in his mouth. He enjoyed a bit of cake as well, though I think more ended up on him rather than in him. But we enjoyed ourselves.

The new school year has started and I'm pleased to say I've lasted more than a week. It's a new record. I'm enjoying myself and the kids seem to. So that's what counts, right?
