A day of emotions

Early this morning my IPAQ arrived. I was so excited, even woke Mel up to show her. She was not impressed!

After sitting and thinking about it and pondering over the imminent birth of my collegues first child, I realised how meaningless my excitement was this morning.

The message was pressed home futher when Mel told me one of her friends had just lost their baby after 12 weeks of pregnancy.

At least it got me thinking!

Sunday, a day of rest...

Well, after a very enjoyable and good service at Church (well done, Chris, Martin and Sally!) we came home to have a lekker braai.  Ben is all for braaied meat and gets very excited about it. 

After his nap, we headed to the pool for his weekly swim.  He was again very nervous, but warmed to the idea and was upset about getting out.  We had a walk and then afternoon tea in the garden (not that we have much!) 

When we arrived upstairs, all he wanted to do was phone Pa and Nana (Phil’s Dad and Mom).  Ben was disappointed not to speak to Pa as he was sick in bed, sounds like a little bit of a bug floating around in EL.  He and Nana had a very lengthy chat and after they said goodbye, Ben wasn’t through and arrived back a couple of minutes later to continue chatting.  I need to do some work for school now.

Until later
