being grown up

by julie

posted April 27, 2012

At the fairly respectable age of 32 I’d like to think I’m some way towards understanding what it is to be ‘grown up’.

  I finally got to meet Ollie and Mia at the weekend after having followed their antics on twitter for a while now, and they are every bit as cute as I could have imagined! Mia especially seemed to love posing for the camera…   Of course at the start of our walk, she was […]
