I supported my nephew this weekend at an under 15s rugby cup final. St Ives narrowly lost to Cornwall, but it was fantastic. I shouted myself hoarse!! Blogging is a great way to record all those little funny moments. I love the idea of your boys dividing your chattels and relegating the youngest to cook. Priceless.<br /><br />Leanne xxLeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15617604296746784414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-43643670570928602392014-03-18T22:03:59.505+00:002014-03-18T22:03:59.505+00:00I remember the mud - rugby players here, they roll...I remember the mud - rugby players here, they rolled around in it on purpose - and then they both left school and stopped playing. Yay! Mind you one took up rowing aged 16 and used to fall in rivers instead. And the two girls brought back nearly as much muck as the boys when playing hockey.<br /><br />I love the conversations you have with your boys. I wish I'd written down more of what mine said when they were little. I only remember small bits.

If he’s anything like me, though, they won’t want his cooking, so he may get out of it All the things springing to life is lovely! I can’t wait for things to start budding around here. That is too bad about all the mud, though. I can just imagine how messy that was.
