"Granma from Daddy's phone" reporting from Toronto

We have safely arrived in Canada. We had a somewhat whistle stop visit at Stephen's where we found Lucy well and getting excited about the baby, Stephen the same and generally ready for the big event in about 2 or so weeks. All flights were uneventful and we were only a bit late at the very end, otherwise on time or even early. Alex came and picked us up, later we fetched the little monster from daycare. He was quite shy at first, but loosened up later. My status as "Granma from Daddy's phone" took a while to sink in, but by the time we went outside to play on the deck we were doing truck races with big crashes and tickles all round. The caterpillar was the first present I gave him and it turned out a massive hit. I had the feeling when I spotted it in the shop window that such a weird green caterpillar is a Callum sort of thing. We did have a slight problem prising it from his hands this morning en route to day care, but eventually he agreed to leave him with me.
