Spook went to work and I stayed home with the lovely children. There was no particular push to go snowboarding, which was fine as mine is broken so it was economical not to go. Meg always thinks she wants a nice day at home after work - there is a long life ahead of her yet!! With nothing better to do, they had lot's of time to be uncivil to each other and then had the nerve to ask what had happened to their tolerance pay!! I informed them that their father and I had drunk it in the shape of excellent kiwi coffee, which we had earned in our tolerance of them. It was so bad at one point that I had to go for a walk with Finn and then come home and go for a run with Meg. Finn loved the one to one chance to do some talking and marvelled at how a simple comment on one subject ended with talking about something completely different with lot's of stuff in the middle. Meg ran well and proved that she had become fitter since being here. They go off to school so happily and always seem to have had a good day, that I forget they actually do anything constructive there. The relaxed Kiwi style stikes again.
grateful for:
them giggling happily together at the end of the day - why must they torture me?
