Saturday 27th June 2008
I haven't blogged any photos for a while and thought the Grandparents might enjoy some photos of their darlings. The girls had some new tops, so we photographed and we voted on which photos made it...15 out of 17 got the tick, so you get to see 15 photos. They're just adorable, but you probably already know that!!!
love AD xx

On the weekend Su and Keshav we were sitting around the table doing ‘sight’ words from Aalya’s reading homework. She did really well then got stuck on one and just couldn’t figure it out so I thought I’d help by saying a couple of sentences with the word in it. This is what happened:

Me to Keshav “Would you like to have a banana?” (emphasising the HAVE)
Keshav to Me “Yes I would like to have a banana” (emphasising the HAVE)
Me to Keshav “ Go ahead and pick the banana you would like to have" (emphasising the HAVE)
Keshav to Me “OK, I’m going to have this banana” (emphasising the HAVE)

Me to Mu “So what’s the word?”
Mu “Banana”

OMG sooooo funny! And you never just know whether she actually knows and is just playing……

Ryan's Mum said, "now if you touch the bottom with the knife, you know you'll have to kiss the nearest girl and I pointed to Aalya... So to my surprise (and hers too), he deliberately touched the bottom and then planted a big one on her cheek!"

Ryan and Aalya were at pre-school together and are now in the same class in Kindergarten Rabbits.

The girl walking past (right) is saying "Hi Kim"
