Winter colds 

  
The winter cold has hit us pretty hard at the moment, well the boys and I, Madelyn and Stephen seem to be fine. Harry who first brought the cold into our household is worst of all.

I snapped this photo only a few minutes ago of Harry sound asleep on the couch and Dexter siting on top of him – watching over his sick little brother. 

If I didn’t have to pick Madelyn up from rehearsal, that’s where I too would be fast asleep on the other couch. 

Dogs are family

  

 

I was driving somewhere the other day and when I stopped at the lights, I noticed two sets of eyes and two noses peering out of a black box (or so it seemed) attached to the back of the car in front of me. 

Even though the dogs were far safer in that black box than some of the dogs I see riding all alone in the back of a Utes unrestrained, I still couldn’t help thinking how sad they looked and I couldn’t help wondering why they couldn’t be in the actual car with their person. Dogs are family, family should be together!!

   

Ransom 

  

This is the ransom note prepared by the boys (my Harry and his two friends ) for Madelyn his twin sister and her friend. I love that the boys were so excited about their mischief and it was really sweet to see the girls play along. 

I have had such a great day today pottering around the house while the kids have fun with their friends. There were 6 kids in total and at times the noise level was a bit overwhelming but it was so nice to just be able to observe them all interacting. These children have been friends all through primary school and although this year they have each gone their separate ways to different high schools they have kept in touch and I am happy to say are as close as ever.
