What wonderful colours – wouldn’t you just love to know what thoughts were going through the little person’s mind?
Mummy’s Little Monkey: Thanks everyone, for your lovely comments! I loved that you all ‘got’ the same message from the photo without a single word from me (yay for Silent Sunday!!!) And for all of you who pondered the question – is she talking to Mr Seahorse, or about to slobber on him..? Well, let’s just say that, a few moments later, Mr Seahorse had a very damp nose… 😉
