‘I fix it’
After an agressive altercation with a boy and a bus door on Sunday our vacuum cleaner has been on the blink.
David has been fixing it as best he can. (He can feel my panic in not being able to clean for the twins’ party).
Every morning Noah has come in and pointed to the poor plastic heap in the corner of our room.
"Carleener" he states, "Broken".
To which I reply in the affirmative; yes, it is broken.
The boy who is deathly afraid of said ‘Carleener’ (cleaner) would then proceed to give the machine a kiss on the top of it’s body and proclaim it "all better".
For three days this has gone on.
This morning, we limped the vacuum out to de - crunch the floor. As it whirred into action Noah sprang into my arms, shaking and crying. He cuddled in close and, totally believing in the power of the kiss, whispered to me, his eyes as big as saucers,
"I fix it".
that is so cute - the power of one healthy self esteem

ooooh that is too gorgeous! My girls were petrified of the vac for ages but now think it is very fun for me to pretend to suck them up!

oooh so sweet. I was sitting with Boo before and Moo came in with really bad period pain (she is a real drama queen so there were tears and wailing). Boo told her to get a glass of water, have a drink and then he will kiss her and she will be all better.
Must be those magic mummy kisses that convince them of their super powers of healing.

I’ve been sick for a week…do you rent him out for “fix-it” kisses?

Amy is terrified of the vacuum cleaner as well.
Maybe you could get him to kiss everything that is broken.
PS How did Miss Ivy’s sleep study go?

If you have a sorrowful experience
In your inner life,
Disappointment must not break your heart.
For you have deep within you
The wisdom to transform
This sorrowful and painful experience
Into a joyful and fruitful realisation.

la quantit di piooglni presnete su schermo non mi sembra di molto superiore rispetto a uc, anche le texture sono leggermente migliori.ci che invece mi lascia piacevolmente impressionato la gestione degli effetti di luce, vera forza della console nintendo (lo ripeter fino alla nausea).ci mi fa ben sperare poich una buona illuminazzione, a contrario di quanti credono il contrario (e sono molti), in grado di infondere realismo e suggestivit pi di quanto non facciano piooglni e texture.se alla capcom hanno capito questo, saranno in grado di presentare titoli graficamente soddisfacenti nonstante le lmitazioni hardware (che poi, se ci fate caso, quanto stanno facendo alla highvoltage con the conduit).

This can be fine if you don’t care about creating funds together with your blog. .
Otherwise, marketability is incredibly essential. .
