We're going again to the athletics on Thursday for a very long session so we are prepared for the kids to get bored.

Since having children I'm completely over that. No, I don't want to be a nuisance, but children are going to be children and there's no way a 3-year-old will be seen and not heard for an entire dayChez Mummyhttp://www.chezmummy.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270544641593518569.post-63977627614762874972012-08-05T23:11:40.043+01:002012-08-05T23:11:40.043+01:00Thanks for taking the time to read and comment.

The idea was that we'd watch a little bit of volleyball in the morning but spend most of the day at Wimbledon, sitting on the hill watching the action on Centre Court and letting Sophia run around. Just a shame then that it rained practically all day, completely ruining our plan and making things just that little bit more challenging!Chez Mummyhttp://www.chezmummy.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270544641593518569.post-66768140243569501172012-08-05T15:10:39.084+01:002012-08-05T15:10:39.084+01:00Oh dear.

Sounds like a fairly typical day with a small child, but Daddies often don't realise what it's like to spend a whole day with them and how demanding they can be!
