Wedding faux pas ?

Eeek...I've just realised something. Whilst we dutifully had the royal wedding on, and happening in the background, neither of the older boys were in the slightest bit interested, and obviously the younger two really didn't have a clue either.



We of course filled in the older two about who they were and what they stood for blah blah blah a long time ago, but it was Ethan who summed up Friday to a tea as far as I am concerned. He said - and I quote - "So what? It's just another celebrity wedding which wont be given a second thought until she comes out with a press release in about 6 months time declaring that she is preggers. Personally, I don't see the point in dragging yet another life through the media mud."

And with that he sauntered off into the village to buy an ice-cream.

Perhaps the rest of modern youth will think differently, but the beauty about Ethan is that he doesn't care what others think. He allows others to have their own opinion as long as they allow him his.
And as a parent to such a wise head on young shoulders, I am very happy to support that ethos of his.

(And just for the record...I thought the dress was OK, but her bouquet was lame and the inclusion of sweet williams was sickly)

  4. Completely at a tangent - go ahead and share the recipe all you want! Good for Ethan having his own opinion and being able to express it so eloquently!

  5. Do you think this attitude is unusual? I would have guessed that this is quite typical of most young people.
