Rush Rush Rush

We went out early-ish this morning as we had a LOT to get done. LMS needed to pick up a Temporary Resident form from our GPs as she needs to see him, but is now registered in her University Town! Then we had more shopping to do for our holidays, even though we aren't supposed to be taking THAT much stuff and buying lots while we are away!! My favourite sunglasses (gorgeous Disney ones with a diamante Mickey on) have broken and I can't find any I like in the shops - they are all HUGE "I'm a Celebrity" style ones and they don't suit me!! As Little Prince had been so good around the shops we took him to the local indoor play centre, had some lunch and then let him run around for an hour or so. I expected the place to be packed, but there was barely anyone there!! Little Prince seemed to prefer it that way and played really well with the other two kids in there with him, its probably as it wasn't as overwhelming as it is when its FULL!! After a while a younger girl came in to play too. And after she had been in for a while, she came to the edge and held onto the netting enclosure and said very plaintively "Mummy I can't get out" Poor mite. After her mum had tried for a couple of minutes to direct the tot out, I asked Little Prince to go and find her and lead her out with him. He lived up to his Little Prince name and tried his chivalrous best to help the little girl :-) She followed him (while being encouraged along by Little Prince to "Follow me") right up until they got to the big slide to the lower levels. Little Prince slid down, trying to persuade the tot to follow him but she was too scared :-( He went back and tried to show her another way down. I was so proud of him and how gentle and kind he was with the little girl :-) He is going to make a fantastic big brother one day :-)
