#1826 Saturday 16 June

Gee .... days have slipped by without a blog entry!  What has been happening?

While Naomi has been away, life at home has been a little more hectic I s'pose ..... Naomi came home Wednesday and Kaylia was very happy to see mummy after school then ... it was story time before the dust had settled!

Then Thursday and Friday were business staff pay preparation and processing for me ..... this is still my task ..... the person we have employed to take over the accounts from me is doing a good job but it will take a while before the pay process can be handed over.  This will come eventually.

Today I had some tractor time .... a neighbor wanted a hand with preparing a part of his yard for lawn.  The area had to be leveled and then fresh soil spread over so that it was ready for grass to be planted.    It was a little worrying because he has a young boy who was fascinated by the tractor ...... and I had to keep one eye on the child because the father was not keeping the child as far from the work as I would have liked.

Kaylia is still fixated on when her next day at school will be!  She is also trying to get us to talk about going to Bali at Christmas ..... but we know from experience that we must keep away from that.  Our tactic is to tell her
"No .... we will talk about Bali in November. 
How many months to November?  July .... August ... September .... October .... and then November!"

#1825 Monday 11 June





School excursion to the Maritime Museum in Fremantle














Kaylia seemed to enjoy the day ..... usually when I ask her questions, she gives the impression that she doesn't know what you're talking about and she's not really interested ...... but when I talked to her about today, she knew that she'd been to the museum ... and she responded to comments about pirates.






Tonight when Naomi Skyped from the villa, Kaylia joined in.  She was happy to see mummy but once she had seen her and made sure that she was still around, Kaylia was off again .... back to her room.
