Pesach re-enactment

At second night Seder we re-enacted the Pesach story, with lots of drama and action. Robs was Moshe, Bern was Pharoah, I was G-d and the rest were the Jewish people trying to flee Egypt. I thought this was great fun and, as always, got fully into character.

Park fun with my fave

Robs and I played all sorts of games at the park. He got so into the spirit of being in mermaid world & he even managed to lift me up with his feet while he hung off a bar- I loved this!
Not sure who had more fun :)

Artist in the making!

Granny bought these great water colour paints, so Cass and I got creative

Thanks for a fun playdate - chicks! Ha ha!

I am so grateful ...

Everyday that goes by ... I can honestly say - that every time I look @ Zaza I think, wow! I am so blessed to have a child who is (96 percent of the time) so happy, so excited about life and everything around her .. And so expressive in her words and actions and gestures!

It is hard these days to remember all the amazing and funny things she does and says ...

Today - for some reason - she seemed to have grown from a little 5 year old nursery schooler - to a mature primary school child ... The way she answered my requests, the way she offered to help, the way she negotiated with her friend and explained things to her - I just couldn't believe my ears and eyes!

She is so lucky to have auntie Cas as an important and ever present person in her life - their relationship is amazing!

Some of the 'little grown-up words' she does say ...
- surprisingly
- options
... I can't think off the top of my head

What does 'crack me up' (she said that the other day) ... Is when the adults are talking and she is drawing etc ... And you think she is not listening - but suddenly she gives a perfectly logical comment or adds to the conversation her thoughts or affirmations! It's hysterical...

I'm also impressed by her ability to listen to a story, retain it and then tell you the story with such detail and expression!

I love you more and more each day!!! (Is that possible?!)
