#700 Friday 4 October

The first week is nearly over ..... the school holidays are such hard work!  During school term it's as though we have 6 hours of respite every day.  It's terrible to think about it that way .....

No matter how delightful Kaylia can be, she is still hard work.  ..... even when she's being delightful.  These days she sometimes has little blocks of time where she "entertains herself" and we can heave a sigh of relief and relax for a bit.  It's the old issue of no imagination .... she relies on us to keep her mind occupied.  The reason she love car drives maybe the constantly changing view that fuels her mind.

...... and that may be related to the amazing sense of spatial location she has.  She always knows where she is!  Yesterday on our car drive we did a big circuit and at one point she says "Aunty Moo's" ..... we were about 1km from there.  Despite driving on roads that she possibly has never been on, she still knew where she was.  I will have to start teaching her about how to read maps!
