I'm forever blowing bubbles....

...as the old song went (which, apparently, was my great grandmothers favourite!). Charlotte, like most children, loves bubbles, but hasn't been able to successfully blow them all by herself until recently. Look how clever she is now!

I must apologise to Charlotte for the first photo - I remember when I was a child my dad taking a photo of me every year blowing out my birthday candles and I had the horrible puffed out cheeks in every shot that is really unflattering! I remember one birthday (must have been in my teen years), that I "fanned" my birthday candles out instead of blowing them just to avoid the puffed cheek photo. Of course, these days the horrid photo would just be one of many hundred that would be taken at a birthday, not one of 24 like the old fashioned camera. Thank God for digital!
