5 nice things

Five nice things I've done today:
  1. Picked and arranged bunches of Abraham Darby and Lady Hillington. ( I have photos, but the computer is misbehaving. This is not a nice thing, so I shall not mention it further here.)
  2. Gathered delicious ripe strawberries from the kitchen garden for Jemimah's breakfast. (See what a kind and generous mummy I am?)
  3. Baked a batch of Macadamia and White Chocolate Bikkies for morning teas and for other times when a sudden attack of the muchies might strike.
  4. Watched a sweet little blue fairy wren attacking its reflection in the study window, chattering wildly all the while. (Him, not me!)
  5. Drunk a lovely home-brewed coffee in my favourite Japanese pottery mug.

And it is not even nine o'clock. What a wonderful day this is shaping up to be!!

  6. Sounds lovely Jeanne. We have the cutest little finches playing outside on our front lawn this morning. So fun to watch, I think blue wrens would have to be my favourite! Have a great week, Mel. x

  8. just a comment on cook in his early days he was a commendable captain who cared about his crew and knew how to handle them you could discuss with j how people change if they don't stay close to God seeing she's seen it you can use it for good. I hate it when the first few are clearly for family veiwing then the later ones become adult grace

I'd love you to leave me a message. Tell me what you like - and what you don't. Just remember that this is what we do in our family - it doesn't have to be what you do in yours...
