Well.. Joshua's class have a teddy called Clustiog and each night one child gets to take him home and then mummy has to write a diary about his time with the child lol Joshua has been telling me about this Clustiog but obviously me being very English I had no idea what he was waffling about lol He kept telling me it wasn't fair he didnt have a turn, so I assumed it was a toy or game lol

Anyway, I collect Joshua from school today and his teacher tells me Joshua has been very good and is taking Clustiog home. I opened the bag to find a little beanie style teddy and a little diary. Joshua is to look after him and then I have to write about what exciting things they have both been up to pmsl

Joshua keeps talking to it in Welsh, and I have no idea what he's saying pmsl when I ask he says its private lolol Joshua wants me to make dinner (spagg bol) for this teddy.. there is no chance knowing us he'd get covered lolol Joshua has already lost him once pmsl Im going to let them bake after dinner, and they have been shopping, I thought maybe a bounce on the trampoline and a bath and early night for them both lolol What exciting things am I meant to arrange with no notice for a toy dog lolol

Incidently Ive just learnt Clustiog translates as big ears lol.. well the dog does have big floppy ears so thats appt lolol

When I worked at the nursery we used to send a toy (elephant I think it was) home for the weekend lolol As a nursery nurse I never thought about the poor parents, just the excitement for the kids. Some of the diary entrants that came back were cool, and if one of the kids were going on holiday often the parents would ask if their child could have it that week lolol

Joshua is having fun with Clustiog so I will try and fill some exciting things in lolol and Ive taken a few photo's

Joshua wants to give him a bath (he needs it lol) but Im not sure if we should let it get wet lolol
