Lisa sent me a text message last night which read:

"Am was right. We're very sad without you."

That was followed this afternoon by this photo...

Very SadNow, I know they say kids are resilient, but this is getting ridiculous. If her face was any braver, she'd be verging on elation. Obviously I'm touched that she's pretending to be ok, but frankly I think she needs to tone down the Baywatch look and go for something a bit more sackcloth.

I'm also concerned that without my steadying hand on her shoulder, Amelie's crashed straight off the rails. If you look closely at that photo, she appears to have a tattoo on each arm. And one of them's a football. She might as well have the word 'hooligan' scratched across her bicep. Lisa's only been a single mother since yesterday, and she's already lost control of our daughter. By Wednesday, she'll be smoking, drinking and smashing up Toys R Us.

Just as long as she gets me a Playstation 3 while she's there...

Perhaps not smoking, but she's already eating, drinking and smashing up the happy home - and garden.

Perhaps I shouldn't mention that it was Chloe she cried for after you left yesterday!

I blame the grandparents.

Someone has said that grandchildren are God's reward for not killing your children!

You can get fridge magnets & T-shirts with it on, so it must be true!
