That's so lovely you have got such a kind, caring grandaughter. Yes having a youngster around can be tiring but they are so worth it! I know I wouldn't be without my brood of grandaughters & grandsons! They keep you busy, up to date with life, smile & make you happy, are such caring little people. I love them all as much as I know they love me & the same goes for you & Lois. Roll on the next visit! X

What a great Nanny you are and with such a lovely granddaughter too. It is great to be with the grandkids but nice when they go home, or in your case, you go home.

Lovely photo by the way. xxxx

You are a lucky Nanny, little Lois obviously loves you very much.
