Me at the front. Rowed in two 1km races today. Competitive sport way outside my comfort zone, but gotta do what challenges you, so they say....

Happy Birthday Nicholas!

It was a bit too windy for candles, but we tried to #lightthedark as it came in. Refugees are welcome.

I walk the dog, Nick walks the goat.

Ducks a bit higher than usually

How To Be Mean Mummy #9: Refuse to give toddler your yummy milo "for a taste" even though the poor darling has already finished her own. Such a horrible Mum.

Sadie raids my bookshelf not to read, but to have a drum set. She has even demanded I sing along.

I often have a cat on my lap, so why not try a goat for something different? (His feet are covered in chook poo so as cute as he is, he's a bit on the nose!)
jessmeyer27:
The baby goat got called 'Bud.' (Toothless's nickname is Bud so that was the compromise. Think How To Train Your Dragon those of you with kids).

Halo of hair

A windowsill lined with origami artworks this morning. One of the pleasures of teaching Japanese kids :-)

Making videos to watch for self assessment.

A glorious morning for rowing

Baby goat doing very well. Now he needs a name. Any suggestions?

Sadie says "You, me and Daddy, we go donut shopping!"

Sadie, 2, thinks 'A Man For All Seasons' is just a bit much, while Zoe, 5, contemplates the literary relevance of Albert Camus' 'The Outsider.' #latergram
