Happy Anzac Day!






Mummy, Eowyn and Coco's "Australia" presentation at Eowyn's school, featuring 'The Frill Necked Lizard Dance', "Waltzing Matilda" (Which arrived from Grandma just in time! Thanks!), "Possum Magic", Mummy's Kangaroo story, Laughing like Kookaburras and learning that Koalas are NOT bears!!

PS Eowyn knows all the words to "I Still Call Australia Home!"

PPS See you on December 3rd, Australia!!

PPPS I forgot to tell you about the vegemite adventure bites... Most children loved them, but one poor little lad cried and cried when he tasted vegemite...

PPPPS We made them ANZAC bickies, but accidentally ate them all before school ... WOOPS!

Megsy, it was great to talk to you on the way to this! It looks totally wonderful. Eowyn looks so proud of her mum - i would be! And darling Coco sitting so studiously by your side and joining in all the actions- she's very brave in front of all those big kids! Can't wait to see y'all on the 6th.

Our family doesn't go to church any more. I say I go to 'St. Nikki's' (because Nikki and I walk around Green Lake every week and talk and laugh and pray) and 'St. Benjamin's', 'St. Eowyn's' and 'St. Cosette's' because I'm lucky enough to live with those three ...

Anyway, the reason I'm not going to official, formal, good ol' fashioned church is that I think it's a family thing, and Bens doesn't want to go any more ... In his words: "We got to attend Solomon’s Porch this last summer during our 11,000 mile 33 state road trip. It was actually after visiting here that I officially finalized my long-in-the-works decison to not do Sunday morning church anymore. It was very kewl.
