Yes this is a blog about Life in Thailand!

A momentous event in the life of Benedict occured today: he had a poo in his potty for the first time! In my eyes he can do no wrong for this! As you can see we keep him busy with ironing in his spare time! My word, it's quite an experience watching him grow up.

Benny can throw things overarm perhaps suggesting he might be a great cricketer! This can be a problem. The mangostein in Benny's hand might have ended up on the dinner table as he actually threw it. Tut tut!

Benny is a great copier as the above shows. RJ is a great friend and Benny just loves playing with him. What a racket they can make. Benny can tell you the photo is of "RJ".

All I can say is Benny is wonderful even when he is naughty. He definitely doesn't like the word "NO"! But he is a real live wire, as strong as an ox with boundless energy.

Benny's teacher at nursery told me he is dancing at school at the Mothers Day events which fall next week; it is celebrated in Thailand on the same day as the Queen's birthday and it is a big event. Unfortunately both of us will probably miss this as we will be caught up in events in our respective schools. We dance a lot at home: Benny loves "Clap your hands".
