Last week saw the arrival of the Seffo clan visiting the UK as part of Seffo’s European tour. I met their beautiful 1 1/2 year old baby boy A for the first time. Seffo hasn’t been to the UK for over a year due to Green Card something or other. Times flies. I was embarrassed when he told me that I hadn’t visited LA in 7 years. But with a new beautiful baby boy to hang out with, I don’t think I’ll be leaving it so long (I want one).
I have quite a lot of experience with boys now and as I recently discovered, when Meeshy Moo was down with her 2 kids, boys love to bang things. I bought Lovely P a cute Minny Mouse swimsuit and Lovely L a little baseball set. I was a little worried that he would hit his sister with it, but it was really soft and we all agreed that there could be no harm in it. Typically Lovely L found the best bit releasing the ball on the automatic pitcher and proceeded to slap and bang it about. Boy see. Eventually he grabbed Lovely L ball and Lovely L bat and had a go. Suddenly disaster struck. The bat made a breaking glass sound when struck. This led to a breaking glass symphony. How could it all go so wrong? Why would Disney do that? Luckily Lovely L is a good boy and it didn’t occur to him to strike his little sister. I give that kind of good behaviour another year. Smelly boys. So, anytime A got gnarly during lunch (lack of sleep) I banged the table making him laugh out loud with his toothy grin. He really is the image of his Daddy, but not in the adult baby Damian Hurley way. Oh no, he’s so cute and by all accounts wakes up smiling. It really is a scream seeing Seffo coo cooing.
On the Friday Seffo had been invited to give a filmed interview about his time at the RFH. He agreed but asked if myself and How Much Have You Got could be interviewed with him. It was a scream. I was really nervous before hand but like the time I did karaoke, as soon as a microphone was stuck under my nose, I couldn’t shut up. It lasted 1 1/2 hours. The three of us together again felt good and reminded me of just how good those times were and how many wonderful friends I made. Every single one of my friends now, bar none, I met through the RFH in one-way or another. Some I lost contact with over the years, but the great fire of 2006 brought us all back together. It’s true, you really do find out who are your good friends when something like that happens. And I’m really lucky. : )
