Not many photos this week: it’s hard to tell if it is from a successful attempt to be more engaged with the kids (there were a couple of card / board game occasions this week with no screens), or just taking for granted the benefits of watching the kids run around.
Nonetheless, Dad took the kids for a bit of a walk on Saturday – we learned that regardless of the health benefits to the ducks, they’d rather eat bread than either apple slices or oats. Huff kept referring to our duck snacks as “bait” rather than “food” despite repeated correction.
Given the choice of walking along the footpath or take the bush track, the kids chose the bush track, and Huff was busily picking leaves as a bouquet to give Mum. Sadly the leaves didn’t make the full journey, but here they are captured.
Sunday we were at church and then a birthday party, and so Huff consented to wearing a dress for the day. She was a big fan, and was quite fond of twirling in the dress, at least for a while.
Puff had some maths adventures this week, tackling some tough problems with a mix of confidence and empathy for another kid who was struggling a bit; he’s also getting ready for an upcoming drama performance, so hopefully some more photos next week!
