Chloe's a weiner!!!

Er... winner. I mean she's a winner. ;)

She won £50 in gift vouchers from the local Wilkinson's. She put her name in for the prize draw last month, and lo and behold, she won!

(I would love to show you pictures, but the kids have made the camera vanish. I'm sure it's in this house somewhere, but where... I have absolutely no clue.)

When you consider the mask-making contest she won at Waterstone's last month, the fact that this kid keeps saying "I never win anything" is utter rubbish.

£50? And she's FIVE.

I wish I had her luck!

My children have issues!

On the way to school this morning, Chloe found a new toy. She actually found it on the ground outside the paper shop. It could have been any number of kids' - most kids at their school end up walking past this shop - so I let her keep it. (If there had been any way to find out whose it was, I would have at least TRIED to find out, but out on the street on the most popular route to school? No way.)

I wouldn't let her keep it at school, though. I told her I would take it home and put it on her chair. Which is exactly what I did.

So as soon as we got home, she went straight for her chair and started to play with it. It gets on my nerves (makes all kinds of strange music), but when she started doing this, I just had to get the camera out - AFTER I laughed my ass off, of course.

I think the kid's got some SERIOUS problems! *lol*
