Ahh the freedom of being able to go out without a small person in tow.

For example, when I went to Wisley:

I didn't have to visit the alpine greenhouses to look for the cat 

that likes to lie in the sun.

Nobody needed my help in the adventure playground.

Nobody needed my hand for balance as they walked on walls.

 

I didn't have to explain that although they are included in the 

children's lunchbox selection display, jellybeans are not a fruit 

so choose something different please! 

I didn't have to visit the soft play area.

I didn't feed the ducks.

I didn't have a pretend tea party in the summerhouse.

Nobody nagged me for an icecream.

Oh how I missed her!
