M – Okay, so our children do their own things. That does not mean that they do not spend time together and have lots of fun doing so. Still, their horizons are expanding.
Mango went skiing last weekend and loved it. After about 4 or 5 guided trips down the bunny hill, she wanted to try it herself. So, while waiting for the instructor to come back up the hill (he was helping another student), she went off by herself (with D nearby) to the midway point down the hill. She then walked back up to meet the instructor for another go (all the way down). By the end of the day she was flying down the hill without guidance, although she still needs to learn how to turn. 🙂
Everyone is growing up so fast. Lemon is showing his independence (he likes to say ‘NO’ a lot). He is testing his boundaries, but not ready to leave the safety of his mommy. While ‘NO’ may be seem to be his favorite word, I think he still says ‘mommy!’ more often.
Nectarine seems to like her glasses (our positive spin seems to have worked), and while she is a more shy than Mango, she is certainly emerging as a strong person.
There’ll be more pictures, but if I figures some were better than none and since I tend to try to make my posts have a common thread throughout them, if I keep on doing that, I’ll never post anything. When I sit down to add a post, I first work on organizing the pictures we have. By the time I’ve tidied them up (and then only some of them), too much time will have gone by for me to have the energy to slap something up here.
M – That’s my story. Enjoy.
