So...My Little Heart, my Popsy, my little chicken-wing, my Scrumpot turned 6 over the weekend.
It's crazy how quickly the time has gone, accented much more by the fact I don't live with her and therefore don't see her every day.
And with a little hair-straightening she looks very grown up....scarily so!
It has been a lovely weekend celebrating her 6 years on the planet and it has given me a little time for reflection, on what has gone before, what is happening now and what is to come in her life and also in mine.
The journey I have gone through personally since she was born has been mad, crazy, emotional, happy, sad, frightening and frustrating, but all in all, it's been hugely rewarding and I don't have any regrets. And I feel I am past the moment of thinking that I wish things might have turned out better for her given her parents aren't together, as I know this doesn't matter. She is loved, cared for, and happy. And that makes me happy.
I am very lucky to be her daddy, and although she is growing up far too fast, I can't wait to be beside her as she continues to grow into a wonderful human being...!

3 good things:
1 - A lovely breakfast and morning in general, at Alexis' house, with Alexis, her mum (my ex), and both sets of grandparents.
2 - A great party for Alexis, with 15 of her school friends
3 - A great, smooth run back to Norfolk that evening
