Day 22

Monday 2nd April

Hooray.  Hooray.  Mummy's coming home today.  I am so excited.....   I was up early again to day ready for Mummy... Today is going to be a long day....  but very special

I had some books to return to the library so Nanny and I were off early in the car.  Nanny drove to the library near the big shopping centre but it was closed.  You should have heard Nanny.  She is so funny.  They do some things strangely here in Melbourne she said..  Imagine having the library closed on a Monday..  Anyway we drove to a closer library on Barkly Street just near 'Jelly Bread'.  It was terrific. There were so many books there just for me. 

I must tell you something really funny.  I started reading out the letters on the labels for the groups of kids books.   I read A-G and H-L and M-R and S-Z.  There was a little boy with his mother and father reading nearby and they just watched me. ... Then I read all the letters on the beautiful blue mat on the library floor.  When I came back to Nanny the mother looked very surprised and asked Nanny how old I was.   Nanny said 20 months... I hope that was right.   I thought it was funny and Nanny looked very pleased.  She said I was showing off but was smiling at the same time... What does that mean Nanny?  I don't understand you sometimes.   

They had so many books there... I just couldn't decide what to borrow so Nanny chose them for me.  She got 7 books for me and 3 talking books for herself.  I've never heard a book 'talk'.  Have you?  I liked that library so much.  I hope we can go back again.... Nanny?? May be Mummy or Daddy would like to go with me too one day.  I have so many things to show and tell them when they get back... Hurry up?!

Mummy's HOME......   Nighty Night...
