What a Weekend

Lily graced the school with her prescence on Friday, under protest from Mummy, as the minion of delight still seemed quiet. But hey, no messes to clear up in over the allotted time, so Mummy gave in, took her in, and sat by the phone waiting for the inevitable "Come get her" phone call... that didn't appear. About lunchtime I rang the school to find she had been very quiet, but good.... so I guess this means we are now officially in our 2 week grace period..

For those that don't know Lily, this works pretty simply. It takes her 2 weeks after a change, to become accustomed enough to it that she can... relax. Give it 2 weeks, and lets see how stressed the teacher looks at hometime to see what type of day Lily had...

She really didn't want to leave school today, she was in tears, and trying to bolt, purely because she didn't want to come home. I'm still not sure why, when I tried to ask her she explained it beautifully... with her back to me whilst running in circles, quietly, while her little brother was playing with the saucepans. She can only tell me things one time at the moment so I guess that one was lost to the void.

We had a fantastic weekend! Lily finally met Spidermans Friends! She even met Spiderman, selected a new piece of art for her wall, and became rather attatched to Harley Quinn. Mummy met some pretty cool people too, got some autographs, convinced Lily to pose with people she didnt know.. then to pose with Harley Quinn.. the difference in facial expressions from her between the 2 pictures is awesome..

We even got a cuddly Dalek.. None shall mess with us now.

I've promised her we'll go again next year. It really was amazing, and our first convention, better than I could have imagined!

She didn't even mind when costumed people interacted with her, in fact, she went and introduced herself to them. Cue Mummy standing back, beaming proudly.

That's my girl!
