Bella is facing a busy day ahead at nursery, but what about her baby brother, Bob? As Bella plays, snacks, creates a picture and dresses up at nursery, she thinks constantly about what her mummy and little brother will be doing. Bob's day, by comparison, has been uneventful, according to mum, but the siblings have shared one thing — they've both missed each other enormously.
