So here are my numbers for September
10 is how old Hayden became this month. It is somewhat of a miracle considering when he was three he suffered a traumatic medical event from which he was resuscitated. 1 cake was made to share with his friends.
1 tweenage girl in my house was saving her lunch food for a 'science' experiment in her bedroom. It was accidentally found. Hmmmm.
3 is the number of fejoa trees we cut down in our small yard. They were just producing so much poor fruit which then just rotted on the grass it was a problem. Now we have a rather bare view but time will fix that as the tree line in the background is camillias.
1 experiment with an egg and vinegar was set up for my 8 year old son. Very successful. The photo shows the bubbles of the shell disolving as we watched.
Then there is the hockey. The last 3 saturday games for the season took place. I am glad my children have fun playing hockey. 3 games out of town for McKenzie and her Auckland Under 13 representative team. Exhausting but I love how she always come out of the practise sessions (8 in all during September). Here is Andre making a takle.
Of course the driving for the hockey meant that one out of town game I drove 5 hours return trip to Whangarei with a 2 hour stop to watch the game and back home again.
Spring is officially here and the 6 fruit trees in my yard are all flowering, my lawn is starting to grown and I am wishing that summer would hurry up and arrive.
Then the magic number of 100 arrived. Yes 100 days until Christmas arrived and sent me into a moment of list making.
This is all for this month.
I am linking this post to Notes on Paper.
