Doesn't time fly? Joseph is nearly FIVE.

Just had a long Jubilee weekend. Lots of playground and Highgate Woods action, and a new version of Ring a Ring of Roses:

Ring a Ring of Dog Poo
A Pocket Full of Gravy Bones
Some Biscuits!
Some Biscuits!
The Dogs Bark Loud ! RRaaow RRaaow!!

Which seems to amuse Joseph no end.

Daddy wasn't feeling very well this morning, so Joseph gave him a kiss to make him feel better. Then he took his dad's temperature over and over again to make him better.

Then we sang the counting song and then he suggested a haircut as a way of leading to the usual vacuum cleaner playtime.

He's off for a picnic in Highgate Woods with his little friends this morning.
