I just read an interesting article on Parentdish about having a favourite child and it made me ask myself if I have a favourite. My two are so completely different that sometimes I wonder that they're actually related!Miss Frugal is the eldest, she's 8 in a couple of weeks although you may well mistake her for a teenager on occasion (check out the attitude on that photo)!

Yeah right - two kids, two adults and a visiting teen in a caravan does not make a relaxing break lol.
