Hi Izzie, thanks for the photos, kids looks like they had a ball, but where is Tulip and yourself?
Do you really think Izzie and Tulip would post photos of themselves in wet T-shirts? It's okay for the boys but you are asking too much, Dutchy.
hahhhhhhhhhhhhahahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhahhahahahhhhhhaaaaa
<holds tummy laughing sox off>
chances of that are zero to none!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Haha jw - how's you doing? Has summer arrived in Chi-town yet? Hugs to you and yours and special smunches to wee Annie
OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhh - we have had SUCH A GOOD WEEKEND! It's been wonderful wonderful good
it was so hot today... and a waterfight was in order - but I didn't think I would get quite as soaked as I did... good fun
ooooooooh..... such a good weekend
little fella has had the best time - he did cry when they left thisavo - bless - he'll see them next weekend but he does so love spending time with the Tulips. He's unfortunately got a temperature (fever) of 102... so it's off to bed in a little bit and see how he goes in the morning.
(((((((((((TC)))))))))))) - so good to see you back from the island - hope all is going well there... will pop over to the school house thread in a moment to check in. Hugs gal (by the way, my TC tree in the garden is in full leaf! I have various parts of my garden associated with people... you are the tree where the birds gather! TCtree - I even talk to you
)
Missy - oh, poor wee fellaz - can't win 'em all but it's tough on them a? Hope today was a good day - how did Allstars go?????????? Oh and yes, you were right, the water yesterday was ffffffffffffffreeeeeeeeeeeeeeezing. Not only that but the pebbles and rocks were hard on the feet - F-boy had cut his feet up badly with the drag as the tide was going out... the waves were just crashing - fabulous sound - the kids were so brave in the water, lotsa boarding and swimming
Letty - yeppers - lobster red but browning up now and LOTS of moisturiser - it's so good having this weather, quite unbelievable really and we are making the most of it - what a difference it makes. Hope all is good with you dear lady - will be across in a minute to play a song - listening to a special fella at the moment
BEAgle - oh, we were watching Britains Got Talent and this young lad came on - 14 years old - and he sang THE most amazing song and I thought of you... it will be youtubed by tomorrow - this youngun is a special talent - so i will put it up tomorrow for you. FABULOUS he was... just as you are! How has your weekend been - are you taking it easy? Have you been for some more walks? love love love to you (((((D))))) x
Tulip - thank you so much for a great weekend - like I said, the boyz were just so good and have the best time together... little boys - very good times. THANK YOU. x
((((Blue))))) oh oh oh - you were in the garden too!!!!!!!! Just dots of you all around. xox x
Sooooooooooooooooooooooo... I gotta say something - I wonder if it's possible to feel a photo... coz I do... all the time - I've taken so many pics this weekend - today, in the garden - it just takes my breath away to capture something that is so pure... gosh... huge visual overload, just really does take my breath away at times... it's so easy to pass a flower/leaf/whatever - but if you just take a look thru a lens - real close up - gosh, its amazing. The colours... so soft - if you just wait 'til the light hits it in the right way you see something so soft, gosh, so hard to describe... it's like silk or velvet or melted chocolate ... i need to show you, can't describe it! Maybe post a pic later and see if y'all get me, get what I'm on about...
ok, rambling now - gonna make a cuppa - sooooooooo glad I haven't got work tomorrow - I feel so very "alive" at the moment - it's a good feeling
R-boy has settled in - long talk with his carer (oh, he's not a carer any longer)... but anyway, I asked him to do something for me yesterday... and he did it... I asked him to touch R's shoulder and just kinda pat his back for me... and he did and he said that he was so happy that he could do that for me.
R hugged his carers - thanked them so much for everything they had done - when the manager left him yesterday he text the other carer - HUGE EMOTION - like it was one of their own kids leaving home - the hardest but best part was having R hug them, thank them and then have to walk away from him and leave him to be independent for the first night. Tears from three grown men after. They are just a phone call away - they won't actually leave him for a long time - and not coz they are paid to - but because they do want to be around him and part of his life because he is R... and he's good... and they care about him so much.
oh dear, tears now - good tears tho - big emotion going on right now.
k - see y'all later...
edit: oh, and my joints are totally pants - ha - I can hardly move leave alone walk - strangely, it's not upsetting me - IT'S BEEN JUST SUCH A GOOD WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and Tulip's F-boy has been "icking" ... however, if the boyz are feeling better we are all going to the beach tomorrow afternoon, should be a little cooler on the coast - and prolly have fish and chips in the sunset. That's the plan anyhooooooo
