For those who don't know I have two nieces, Holly 6 and Kayleigh 8. They are so different it is unbelievable, but they're both little angels and I love em to bits! Let me introduce you...
Holly is crazy, she can't sit still and has absolutely no fear, if she goes quiet for longer than about 5 minutes we know there's something wrong.
As for Kayleigh, she's the total opposite. She's shy, cautious and prefers peace and quiet to noise.
They are at a great age at the moment, they tell you what they need and want and they are interested in just about everything. They're also good at making me laugh, I don't think they always mean to but they do!
On Saturday we were all up at my dad's house and my boyfriend Bri was outside building the stone wall (has been for weeks now, slow process apparently). Kayleigh was inside drawing and Hollie being her usual self was outside 'helping' Bri. When I say helping I mean creating chaos, Bri would smooth some mortar over the wall and Holly would make holes in it by stabbing it with a trowel.
Bri was very good and just humoured her, bless. I decided to leave them to it and went inside, Holly doesn't feel the cold - I do.
About 15 minutes later Holly ran through the door full of excitement, shouting 'Aunty Jo guess what, guess what?'
I hardly had chance to reply before she said 'Uncle Bri says my three fourty five's in the post!' Holly was grinning from ear to ear thinking she was getting paid 345 for helping...clearly what Bri had said was 'your P45 is in the post' (meaning you're useless, you're sacked).
This may not seem very funny reading it but at the time it was hilarious, we were all in fits of laughter. I didn't have the heart to tell her what he really meant, I don't think Bri did either.
