Last weekend Nick took Ryan, Bethany, Hannah and Sophie to the big smoke by train. He loves spending time with them, because he doesn't catch up with them through the week very often. Rachel and I had a meeting with prospective clients for a wedding in November. It is exciting to be stepping out of our comfort zone for our catering. Thanks to Rachel. We met Nick and the kids at our state library for and exhibition of Australian icons. That was very interesting for all but Sophie (21 mths.). the others had a find the artifact or display and write down answers to questions. That turned out to be a piece of cake for all of them . Even Hannah (nearly 4) was copying the names etc. to the amazement of the library staff. On Sundays they set up games out the front of the museum for the kids and adults. Hence the huge Lego etc in the photo. Just as well they had the games there because our lunch took close on an hour to be served. Rachel took Ryan in to see Leonardo daVinci's inventions at the museum, while we explored the rest of the museum for the umpteenth timein our lives. There are always changes occuring thank goodness. Anyway each time we go the next child is really interested in what is around them, this time it was Bethany. Boy she is a bright spark, full of questions and remembering everything as well. Check out Rachel's blog link.
We got so much out of it and it helps Rachel to have extra adults around. Talking about Rachel. Paul and Rachel are doing a great job in helping the kids adjust to their separation. The kids are not showing any signs of stress about the big changes in their lives and it can't be easy on all concerned. I think they should write a parenting book on how to handle the "extended parenting". I haven't seen Rachel so settled in a long time , she is even starting to put some weight on she says. I think that would be in her little finger. Another great day had by all.
