Oboes, Tuesdays and Autumn...

Tuesday, March 10, 2009

1. The pride I feel for my daughter. Miss M has tried out for the year 5 band at school and was given the Oboe. Only 1 student a year is choosen to play the oboe and she got it!!! Very happy indeed.
2. The end of yet another Tuesday - it is always nice when they come to an end these days.
3. Autumn weather - the end to hot nights.
   

It's the smallest things...

Pride, Weekends and Swimming Pools...

Saturday, February 7, 2009

1. Seeing Miss M take the initiative during her first basketball game of the year. I am so very proud of her.
   
2. Weekends - after the first week back at school the weekend is a blessing.
3. Swimming Pools - even I know they are a godsend when the temperature reaches almost 40.
   

Coffee, Laughs and Silence...

Thursday, February 5, 2009

What more is there!!

1. Appreciating the silence (hence the absence for the last few days).
2. A few drinks with friends and many more laughs.
3. Coffee - alone or with company, there is no greater pleasure.

First Days, Freedom and Rain...

Monday, February 2, 2009

1. Surviving my son's first day of Kindergarten - without tears!!
2. The smell of rain.
3. The impending freedom that only comes when all three children start "big school".

Rest, Relaxation and Returns...

Sunday, February 1, 2009

1. A sleep in.
2. Spending the day doing nothing and achieving everything.
3. A "Glad to be home' hug that is almost worth the absence.
