'Mummy, did you have a good day at work?'

Yes, my 3 year old daughter actually asked me this question this evening. I was a bit taken aback but really touched by her thoughtfulness (ok so she was probably mainly copying how I always ask her if she has had a good day, but hey, still impressive to me!). We then had a really nice conversation about what I do at work. I've never really shared with Chloe about the school I work at ('it's called a boarding school so some pupils live there', 'only girls are allowed at mummy's school' and 'we eat dinner all together in a big hall'). She was really interested and kept asking 'and then what?' Se enjoyed hearing stories about pupils being 'naughty' the most. We then had to play schools whilst the girls had dinner (Livia was the teacher). 

It was nice to combine my two worlds and share that part of my life with Chloe. She even learnt some Latin...
Me: 'puella means girl.'
Chloe: 'that sounds like poo. Ugh stinky!'

Ha! And back to being a 3 year old :)
