The new look

What a little beauty ... today she managed to cram drawing on the windows in the bedroom (relax: in water soluble market pens); speeding up to Christ the King for several sprinkles of holy water and singing hymns (not always the right ones) with Tiffany, Por Por & Kong Kong, followed up by lunch; before racing back to Novena for a quick ride on an elephant, and then reading lessons with her new teacher, Mrs Komala; and on to the above haircut; and then a spot of shopping on behalf of Mummy; before making it back home in time to kiss Daddy goodnight and fall asleep.

Here's the little artist pretty much at the crack of dawn ...



I used all my powers of persuasion on Tiffany to persuade her to ride shotgun with Saffy on the elephant ride ... though in truth I suspect the Tiffster was more disappointed than Saffy when the five minutes atop Nelly the Elly was up (see below).



But the highlight for me, Saffy and I suspect you ... is the new hairdo. Fortunately the hairdresser ignored my instructions about the length to cut Saffy's locks (admittedly not my forte) ... and the results speak for themselves (see first photo, and her in the middle of getting her barnet cropped below).
