Elsie is lovely at the moment. She is so cool, wandering round the kitchen all evening, picking things up, carrying them round and shouting and singing. I read in her book from nursery that they’d been singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, so I started singing it, and she did the twinkly stars up in the star action! Then she started doing this weird arm movement that looked like an elephant’s trunk, and I couldn’t work it out for ages, and then I realised it was the spout of I’m a Little Teapot! So I sang that and she got very excited – it was ace!

I look at her and she is so clever and so sweet, and I think – she could be anything. What will she be? An astrophysicist? A ballerina? A road sweeper? A communications officer for a charity?! Who knows! It’s just amazing watching her grow up and turn into this gorgeous, brilliant, strong willed, funny little girl.

She looks a bit drunk on this one! I swear we didn’t give her any booze over Christmas!
