The Royal Wedding.
I admit I am a sucker for a royal wedding.And this one was fabulous!How beautiful did kate middleton look?That wedding gown was divine!I watched the wedding coverage on TV from start to finish(amongst the rest of the 2 billion other viewers around the globe!).It made me happy.This troubled world of our's needed a day of cheer and tradition,and maybe we could,for a little while atleast,believe in fairy tales.My 5-year-old daughter sat cuddled up beside me as we watched...asking"when's the princess come on mummy?".I smiled.I was only a year older than her when I too sat infront of the tele and watched Diana marry prince Charles.I remember my excitement.I can't wait for prince William + Princess Catherine to become king + Queen.I'm such a nerd!.

Easter break.
We have had a lovely long easter break.Made longer still by Anzac day today so,therefore, another public holiday tommorow!.
To mark Anzac day we went along to the dawn service at our local war memorial.It was wonderful to see how many young people were there,including our own three young children.We are keeping the ANZAC spirit alive, so too will they,our children.
They shall not grow old,as we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them,nor the years condemn,
At the going down of the sun,and in the morning,
We WILL remember them.
Lest we forget.

Six
My first born turned six years old on the 7th april.I was up untill midnight baking cupcakes all so he could take them into class on his birthday.That was his request.Well,that and the game UNO.He was so excited weeks before his birthday!!Gee,to have that sort of enthusiasm again aye?.
Jasper recieved some wonderful gifts from family.Thanks everyone.Our boy had a great day.We now have a 6-year-old boy.Soooo exciting.We want to buy him a world map or globe because he loves geography and can draw accurately the map of australia,NZ + SE asia!He also draws and names planets in the solar system.It is so fun learning all this stuff again through the eyes,ears and heart of our six year old....I just love saying that...SIX-YEARS-OLD.Sigh.
