When I was born, Mama was told by many doctors that I probably wouldn't be able to do things most other kids do - like walk, talk, go to school, do sports .... .. so imagine how special a day this was for me and Mama :Would you agree that .... words aren't really necessary here?

Jason invited me to his 5th birthday party!Jason is one of my best buddies, we get on really well, and sometimes when Mama and Papa go out for an evening together, I stay at his house! And I never want to leave - I LOVE going there, its like Never Never Land ....We were greeted by our own personal pirate! He was really cool.Jason's foster Mama Mary-Line made him the most amazing birthday cake in

Ok so there was a little pool incident this summer ... Papa forgot to clean the pool regularly enough and ... the water turned irreparably green. Which was ok for a while cos the weather has been simply DREADFUL here in France : rain rain rain flipping rain! I might just as well live in England... so anyway, whilst Papa cleaned out the pool... Princess me was given the luxury of her own

I have been VERY busy lately getting up to LOTS of mischief!!Redesigning my appearance, as you can see ...Although this looks quite gruesome, I am making tremendous progress on the motor skills front. One of my favorite occupations is drawing, drawing, drawing and drawing. It is one of the few activities I can do for a long time without getting distracted. You should see the number of

Ok Abigail, I know this is your diary, but there is something I have to write in it, just for the record. I am sure other parents of special-needs children have encountered this kind of situation, I just need to get a sense of how they have reacted so I can plagiarize their attitude - my short fuse is not conducive to good "perfect stranger versus hyperactive special needs kid" harmony in public

Little Princess Samantha left the world on Sunday. A true tragedy. She was four.Samantha is an inspiration of a little girl, and Mama has known her in the blogosphere for three years now. Mama is very attached to little Samantha, and terribly fond of her Mama Heather.The Bernard Bunch sends Heather and Samantha's Papa lots and lots and lots of love and support - we are thinking of you all the

Chicken pox is not fun folks ... I am quite grumpy at the momentI have one sore right under my left eye-lid, and it hurts so much. In fact, its only when I am in the bath that I can ever open that eye at the moment. I am covered in spots ... from head to foot ...and only the bath provides me with any relief ... cos otherwise I am one big sticky pussie mess..Only four more days of this to go!

I have been enjoying the snow here ... I can even say 'neige' as I point out the window at the white expanse of garden. This snow stuff is quite fascinating ... I keep slipping and sliding and it makes me laugh so much. Its a bit cold though, especially when my mittens fall off and I am definitely not so fond of that. Get a load of this!I am eating solid food! Could you get more solid than this??

In her typically dizzy fashion, Mama has 'misplaced' the family camera. She remembers putting it down 'somewhere' but can't for the life of her remember where that place is. And she is feeling jolly frustrated cos there have been thousands of wonderful opportunities for great pix of ME ME ME ME ME, what with all the snow we've been having, my first steps and experiences with it, and all the

Mama is sad ... because of this kind of reality. She keeps hugging me and thanking my lucky stars that I was born in France. Sometimes Mama wishes she didn't do so much Internet research to understand disability, cos she doesn't always stumble upon fun stuff....

Justine told Mama off at work today cos she says Mama doesn't update my blog frequently enough. Justine is quite a tough lady. So Mama has asked me to explain that its all my fault. I have been changing outfits willy nilly all around the house every minute of the day ... what else can you expect? It takes up all of Mama's time!!!!!!!Make video montages at www.OneTrueMedia.com

I am soooo excited!I went to a new place today.Its called 'Ecole' (which is French for 'School').I loved it!I made a very special friend. Her name is Sandrine. She stays by my side all day long. And she is really nice. Mama thinks she's wacky - which is her way of saying she likes her a lot.Mama is preparing a video of my first day ... it should be screened at your local cinemas soon!!!!!

About a week ago, Mama bought a sewing machine.Mama has never had a sewing machine.Mama has no clue how to sew. So she decided to take sewing lessons ... so far, she has had two.Mama is quite enthusiastic about sewing. In fact, I hardly see her anymore. She is usually to be found with her nose in her noisy machine, vanished beneath a fabric mountain chain. Only the occasional scissor chopping

Mama hates William and Nathan's Nintendo DS. She thinks it takes over everything ... and it drives her mad when she speaks to the boys and they don't even notice she has said anything cos they are so engrossed in their game. They recently got a Playstation 2 as a gift and Mama and Papa returned it to the givers, cos they don't like the obsessive side of these kind of things. Having said that, if

Abigail has been evacuated!A case of swine flu has been diagnosed in Nathan’s school …. So Abigail has been swept away to safety with her grandparents to protect her from a flu virus which is potentially lethal for her, less so to her brothers and parents. She won’t be around much in the days to come …. And we don’t want to go visit her lest we infect her ….So this is Mama’s live “Abigail post”,

As you all know, I have a private speech therapist who is teaching me the art of talking. Dunno why, cos I'm quite happy with my private collection of ten words - each one can serve any purpose and be easily adapted to any situation. What more does a girl need?Speech acquisition at my (individual) age starts with learning autonomous feeding. Sitting in a chair at the table, using a spoon,

Definitely fit for a Princess methinksI did spend most of this weekend getting used to havingglasses perched on my perfect little snub nose again ...But I got the gist of it all in the end:There ... ... what do you think?Weird, I thought that with new glasses I would see better .

Mama is feeling pretty … perplexed at the moment. Its September soon. September means its time for three-year olds to start school. All those baby girls who were born the same time as me in our little village will be holding their Mama’s hand as they accompany them on their first day at school. Mama has been off plowing files and papers (for all their incredible qualities, the French

Mama is so frustrated at lack of Internet access that she has decided to launch a silliest joke contest .... just for the sake of it really. In many ways, I'm not looking forward to growing old enough to figure out why - oh WHY - she is cracked up on the public library floor because of these silly jokes. Yes, she is really having hysterics on the library floor. And all because of this email she

I was so pleased! Mama finally rolled in last night .... I was so excited to see her I screamed out laughing, much to Mama's surprise and joy!! And she brought the Bernard Bunch back a lovely present .... tulips. Black ones. She looked like she was waiting for us to look excited ....but none of us were. When will she understand that we simply do NOT share her passion for all things gardening ???

"HELLO guys! Wanna hear about some of my latest mischief???" I intend to climb Mount Kilimanjaro in a couple of years, and that requires a substantial amount of training. I started my programme by practicing with the front-room table. Pretty impressive stuff! Mama's vintage 70's salad bowl didn't think so though. Don't grown-ups just make such a fuss about nothing?

These are Mama's favorites at the moment (quite demure and low-key, which is not her usual style, but I guess she has to adapt to my regal status!).Mama LOVED my outfit today!

At long last, my blogger scribe has returned to the land of the living. Mama is a miserable patient ... the Bernard Bunch is frankly quite glad she's back at work where it can no longer hear her perpetual ranting and raving and 'agfhgl my throat huuuuuuuuurts'.

Mama is sick in bed at the moment, which is having a detrimental effect on my blogging abilities. The bacteria have not been as effective on her bossiness as her tonsils though, so this is being dictated to my alternative writer, who is happy to announce that I am the happy victim of Mama's latest fashion craze : hair bows! She has ordered over twently hair bows for me on internet (Major applause
