The shippers arrive at 67 The Crescent on Wednesday. I spent a good hour on the phone with Jason today going through the house together reviewing what is going to be packed and what will be deserted/sold/dumped. It was very strange for me. It seems like a very long time ago that I was at [...]

some news and more beach
A very busy weekend – book study Saturday morning then I took the two girls out on the ministry whilst John and Diane looked after the boys. It was lovely to be out without having to be chasing anyone down the street! (That would be the boys by the way, not the householders.) Auntie Carrie [...]

game on!
R:
The weekend just gone we had a couple from the congregation over for dinner – Nathan and Shiela. We know them quite well already, they had me and the kids over for a barbecue to their house a few weeks ago, and they have helped us at the meetings with the children. Anyway, the kids [...]

R: Hi everyone! Hope your week has started off well. Sorry I haven’t been on line for a little while – I was waiting for something dramatic to happen to blog, but in the meantime have realised that it is nice to report the little things too. So you will be seeing more regular, yet [...]

Kids had a half day at school today, so we went out in the afternoon just to a local mini-farm with petting animals, and a lake with ducks, and then we visited the playground. Jason left me his camera, so I’m just getting used to it. Here are some photos of today.
Sorry I’m sounding a [...]

johnnie gets on the school bus
Well today was the big day – would he back out? Not my Boy. He climbed those bus steps like he’d done it one hundred times before! Well done Johnnie, I was so proud of you today.
Johnnie had a great first ‘proper’ day at Kindergarten. Although he didn’t talk about much else apart from the [...]

Hello everyone. Today marks the end of our first week apart. I thought I would fill you in on how I am getting on, little old me.
I am beginning to get into a bit of a routine – I think I have finally defeated the jet lag. Of course my routine centres on going to [...]

johnnie visits kindergarten
R:
Johnnie and I visited his Kindergarten class today. We had a visit for one hour, after which he did NOT want to leave. I know he will get on brilliantly. He goes again on Friday for a visit on his own, then he starts properly on Monday.
There was a lovely moment with Johnnie and Daisy [...]

forgive me….
R:
I’m sorry that I haven’t been able to be in touch much personally with my friends back home so far. There are a couple of reasons for this – one is that my days are completely full and it is proving difficult to find some computer time. Another is that when I do have a [...]
