Dear Ella
It was so lovely to meet you. You’re certainly a pretty girl – just like your Mummy.
I was really sad to leave. After you and Mummy dropped me at the airport, I went inside and cried for a ridiculously long time. The plane ride home was so turbulent that I was convinced you and Mummy were going to be the last two people I would ever see. And that would have been ok. Because we had so much fun together on the weekend.
But I made it. And now I can’t wait to visit again. In the meantime, make sure you are good for Mummy and Daddy.
Eat well and don’t sleep on the job.
Enjoy wearing those rainbow bright tights we bought for you. They are colourful and fabulous, no matter what Daddy says.
Try not to make your nappies too stinky. That last one was horrific. I think your Mummy is very brave to deal with things like that.
If you feel tired of wearing pink just let me know. I can take you shopping with Tomas & Jones and we’ll deck you out in black in no time.
I miss you loads and loads. Thanks for all the cuddles .
Love Aunty Neen
Can’t believe we missed this sweet post way back in 2011! So gorgeous :)
And absolutely ready at a moment’s notice to deck any child of cousin’s out in monochrome blackness with you dear Neen! ;)
I have no recollection of even writing this post! But how funny, I really did love and wear a lot of black back then. Now I have embraced colour and once embraced, you can never go back!
