The week between

Have been loving being a housewife again during the holidays - sorting cupboards, cleaning the fridge, baking, gardening - all good and in preparation for my parents' arrival next week.  Spent a couple of hours at the school this morning to keep things ticking over.  The boys have been reading, riding their bikes, playing with water guns and balloons, bickering, drawing, cleaning their room, washing the car...all sorts of things to keep busy.  The weather has been a bit up and down, but they take advantage of sunshine and clear skies when they can.
