week 631 / week 503

Back at school, life has returned to its usual school-term pattern. Unusually, it was Mum’s birthday this week!

But first, the story of this photo. Originally, Mum was going to head down to visit the cousins, and Dad was going to look after Huff and Puff. Sadly, Mum called on her way to say our car had broken down, and we needed to do a change-over. So Huff and Puff spent an evening with their cousins, instead of at home.

We have the car back and working again: there was something odd attached to the throttle.

Saturday was Mum’s birthday. Huff wanted to have rag curls in her hair, and Mum obliged the night before.

Puff made her a heart shape with his 5×5 rubik’s cube.

Huff was happy with the way her hair looked.

We all had an enjoyable day.

After brunch and gelato, we went back home, and then caught up with friends around dinner time.

On Sunday, after virtual church, we had a lunch and cake (thanks to Aunty C and Aunty C, and also Uncle J and Uncle J).

Overall Mum was well celebrated. We are glad to have her.
