The last week and the next one are full on with all sorts of family activities. Monday was fourth-born’s ‘official’ kindy farewell, Thursday was first-born’s school prize-giving, Friday night Kim and three children part of the church’s Christmas drive-thru, today three of the kids were in the Christmas pageant at church, and then there are two family birthdays this week. Combine all this with other stuff that’s happening (summer holidays start mid-day Thursday for the kids, Christmas preparations, fitting in some work and other things) and it’s all really busy.

Oh, and third-born and I made chocolates yesterday at her insistence. Just simple molds with milk and white chocolate but they look (and taste) really good. Mmm.
