Photo above shows Twiggy and her Daddy, what a grumpy baby!!!Well I've been AWOL this week again, as I've been rather busy, so not much to report on the crafting front. I have done quite a bit but all of it is surprise stuff for people so I can't post any pics, so shhhhhh don't tell anyone. Note to self do interesting stuff this weekend and blog it!
I am pleased to discover I am not alone in my Ding Dong Appreciation of Mr Tennant (see previous post), blimey Charlie, better not get giddy again.............................
Twiglet and I had a Twiglet and Mummy day today as I was due to be working this weekend. Have since found out that the rotas have been messed up so I'm not. Mr Twiggy is happy as he'll get a lie in on Sunday - harumph!! Anyhoo young Master Twigs and I fed the ducks, went shopping, went to the playground, made a rhubarb crumble and made 3 Fathers Day cards for Mr Twiggy - once he started he couldn't stop :) I, of course forgot to take photos before putting them in envelopes - doh!!
I just wanted to say have a Happy Fathers Day and I hope you have a lovely time with your Dad. Sadly, my darling Dad died 6 years ago, I was, and probably still am a total Daddys girl so I was devastated when he died and obviously he never got to meet Twiglet.
Another favourite pic of mine, check out that poncho, I practically lived in it.Anyhoo, I like to think he made me the person I am today (for better or worse:) and every time I look at Twiglet it's like looking at my Dad.
We took him some flowers last week and he'll always, always be in my heart. So have a great day and to those of you who can't be with their Dad for whatever reason, a big hug from Twiggy.
Hope you like the photos................................
What a lovely post. You are not alone, I sadly lost my dear old dad 3 years ago now.

ReplyDeleteI had a poncho just like that!!Nice to learn a little more about you and your Twiggy life after each visit.
Thanks for popping by my blog and leaving a message ... ermmm ... it's not my hands that are hurting but thanks for the good wishes anyway.
Precious photos. MY dad is many miles away in Ireland while I am in NZ, but I can still text him.

Lovely post Twiggy. I know just how much you must be missing your Dad - I feel the same about my Mum.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy Father's Day with your lovely family and feel your Dad's love around you.

Yes, I love your photos Twiggy. Will be thinking of you on Father's Day.Sal;-)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by my blog while I've been sick. The cushion plumping really helped!
ReplyDeleteThis was such a wonderful post about your dad. Sadly my dad and I did not have a very good relationship so I envy you.
I know today of all days you will be missing your Dad terribly and my thoughts are with you.
ReplyDeleteYou look as if you have some fabulous memories of him.

I have a really similar picture of my father (also with a beard) holding me when I was young. It is my favorite picture of us together. I'm sorry your papa was not able to meet Twiglet. This was a really lovely post.x
ReplyDeletewe lost my Dad four years ago, luckily he was around to see his grandson grow up to age 16 but sadly just missed my 40th birthday :-(

Hi Twiggy, it seems the blogging world is quite small. The fish and chips were really good. As for the blogging I don't know what you mean as it stands I am only taking every spare min and using it to read blogs, post comments to blogs and write blogs.
ReplyDeleteOh I think I am addicted I will start BA and will have a new addiction.

Thanks for your lovely comments everyone. Big hug to you Kathy, Lesley & Josie.
ReplyDeleteAlison, I'm glad you love my poncho, I think it is a totally under rated garment. We should start a campaign, bring back the poncho!!!
Twiggy xx
Your lovely curly hair Twiggy, I love the poncho! So sad you haven't your Dad to share Fathers Day with, I understand how it is to miss a parent. I hope Twiglet enjoyed the day with his Dad on Sunday. x
ReplyDeleteooh look at you in that Poncho!! So gorgeous!
