Happy Birthday James

Today James is 13. A teenager! Can't believe how fast he's growing up. And from the picture it appears that I am growing down just as fast...

Books I've Read

Just a quick note that I have created a new part on my blog which will list the books I read this year. Yes it is correct that I have read 2 already. If you want to know more about the book just click on it and it will take you to a site I have found that gives a good explanation of the book.

If you think of books that I might like to read, leave a comment with the title and author although I can't promise I'll read them all as I do have 2 large piles of books on my floor to get through! And if you own it and want to lend it to me then I will be even more inclined to read it and I promise I'll get it back to you :)

Quick thought...

Sometime people say quotes without thinking about what they actually mean. It doesn't annoy me or anything, I just find it funny. I've been trying to think of more examples but the best I have is 2.

Firstly, "Sticks and stones may break your bones but words will never hurt you". I remember a teacher saying that to me when I was little and some girls were picking on me and even though I was young still being like what on earth is she talking about?? To further prove my point that this is a lame saying I can bet that everyone can remember someone saying something awful to them, even from school.

Next saying, "I slept like a baby". Oh so you woke up every hour or so crying and screaming for no reason? And yes before you all comment I do know that the saying is actually about sleeping with no worries and all that but seriously, I'd rather sleep well than sleep like a baby!

That's all for now. I'll write more later xx
