Happy Ever After
One of Freyja's current favourite bedtime stories at the moment is one about a little girl who rides on her toy unicorn to find out what makes people 'happy ever after'.
We read it tonight and afterwards I asked Freyja what would make her happy ever after. Without hesitation, she replied:
'Pizzas and pancakes, some nice smelling flowers, a beautiful handbag, ballet lessons and some pretty dresses'.
Okay.
She then asked me what would make me happy ever after. I told her that I'm happy when she and Theo and Daddy are happy.
'Anything else?' she asked
'Well, just being with you and Theo and Daddy'
She looked at me for a while, then said 'and some peace and quiet...?'

I LOVE that. So perceptive xx
It's sweet isn't it? The book does refer to a fairy saying peace and quiet makes him happy, but it is sweet that she applied that to me.
