There was great excitement in the house this morning, because Eleanor finally started St Antony's Nursery School.

Although she started a few weeks after her classmates, she settled in quickly and seemed at home instantly.

Such a big girl now and still such a delight to us. She is never short of a joke or silly story. Her first phrase to us just before age 2 was "I funny". She is, and she knows it.

She loves all thinks to do with being a lady and really looks up to those women in her life. She sends flying kisses to Grandma Lyn every day and talks of her Grandma Judy constantly.
