When I was triplet-sitting over the week-end (see last post), all their cousins came over to tea. Here are the youngest two trying to master the trampoline. The heartless laughter comes from Daddy...
When I saw the title of your post, I thought it was going to be you! Thank goodness it was just those two delightful children. I bet you were tempted thought?
When I first met my husband eight years ago, my stepson was seven and had a huge trampoline in the garden. We spent hours on it. He teases me about it now he's fifteen.
I live with my husband in Devizes in Wiltshire where I spend my time writing, reading, riding (I am the lucky owner of a beautiful horse, Blue), and keeping up with my four children and an increasing number of small grandchildren (eight so far). I was for many years a nurse and a Relate counsellor. I have taught creative writing both at a local college and a prison, and I review a wide variety of items - including books - for the Amazon Vine programme.I write to death row prisoners in America, being a life-long opponent jof the death penalty. And I spend too much time blogging..

ReplyDeleteOf course I had a go, Maggie. I love it.
DeleteHow lovely! Great to zip them in and leave them to it xx
ReplyDeleteThere's a whopping great gap in the net, Teresa, so we have to stand there to block the entrance.
DeleteI could never master the art either.
ReplyDeleteAdrian, you just bounce up and down at your own pace. It's quite simple!
DeleteNever having been on one myself, I reckon they were doing quite well.
ReplyDeleteThe baby wasn't doing that well, but he was laughing, so it didn't really matter.

ReplyDeleteIt's great exercise. I'd love one, but we haven't got room.
DeleteAs long as they're having fun they're getting it sort of right.
ReplyDeleteQuite right, Patsy.
