School was good…I’ve been doing extra work throughout the week to prepare for Friday’s short school day (I’ll be selling beads), so the workload has been a little heavier. We’ve started studying birds again, in more detail this time. Yesterday we did ostriches, and today was penguins. The Emperor Penguin can reach a height of 120cm as an adult – nearly as tall as Caleb. We measured.
The boys were invited to Katie’s birthday party at 4.30 this afternoon. I dropped them off, pottered about at home, and then Nick and I both fetched them at 6.30. We stayed for a cup of coffee and cake (me, drinking coffee at 6.30 – I wonder if I’ll sleep tonight?), then got home just in time for Nick to leave again for Bible study.
Yesterday Claire came by with a bag of tomatoes – she found them in Thorpes, and knowing how much I love them, bought some for me. This afternoon DT came by with a handful of them too – I must surely obsess over the lack of tomatoes more than anything else!! Mental note to self…stop discussing tomatoes with people you’ve only just met. Anyway, so now I have a beautiful array of them on top of the fridge in degrees of ripeness. I am blessed! Today’s lunch was a tomato and mayonnaise sandwich, on brown bread nogal.
Hmm, finished this page today…not entirely happy with it, but hey, I was whale-like after all.
