Today I was up just after 5am and after breakfast I set off to DD2's so she could attend the course she is on.
Dgd Eileen was searching for a pair of matching socks, eventually she found a pair that she deemed acceptable.
I asked her if she would like me to buy her some new socks.
She thought for a few moments and then said that what she really wanted were some white ankle socks with bows on to match her school uniform. It seems a classmate has socks with bows on and dgd was desperate for some of her own.
DD2 explained that they were available from Tesco so I agreed to to go and buy her some.
Once DD2 had set off on the school run with Eileen and Norah I set off to Tesco with Suzy.
We found the socks without any problems and also chose socks for Norah, Suzy by now had spotted a Troll dress and was looking at me hopefully.
Fortunately it was reduced in the sale so I bought it for her. The dress came with a bright pink wig and Suzy wore both on our trip to the park, there is a nice park not far from DD2's and I often take Suzy there.
We left the park and went home to have lunch after which it was time for nursery.
Tomorrow I will try for a lie in as I'm doing the school run for DD2 on Thursday as she is off to Amsterdam for a day of business meetings.

You will be the favourite grandma, for sure!
I could quite fancy a troll dress and a pink wig myself. I have decided to knit some trainer sock with the tops in white and the feet in my scrap yarn,now I am thinking of bows. It is good to let out your inner child, far too many people are scared of the thought, never mind the act.
Good Grandma! x
How could you resist? I have 4 grandsons. I would just love to buy socks with bows and troll dresses. Love my boys but have to confess I browse through the girly stuff in the shops.
If I had more money I'd buy the girls lots of dresses, I also have four grandson, they are fun.
