This is my DD3 writing her name on the back of the raffle tickets she won at school :O) They win them for good behaviour or good work and every Monday they are drawn out of a hat and they win prizes e.g. spending a whole day in their own clothes rather than their school uniform :O)
And this one is the inside of a bible that's been passed down to me. It says "Robert Notley from his affectionate daughter, Clara, 1873. How beautiful is that writing! Robert Notley is my 3 x great grandfather and I am in awe of this little book everytime I hold it. I would have loved to have seen a photo of Clara giving it to him and maybe reading his blog afterwards just to see what he thought of his present :O)
