fall break springs early

 insect of note
 close up of insect of note
 in which I attempt to introduce the concept of outdoor naps
which are utterly useless 
and nothing like a bath in a sink and popsicles 
 resting under tree of note
and they are off again. 


The twins preschool has been  shut down by the government for 10 days due to sizeable outbreak of HFMD. The shut down ( for which we were given 24 hours notice ) takes effect during the week and 1/2 leading up to fall /half term break. Not sooooo bad for me as I do not have to make alternate child care arrangements. But  oh boy we have a considerable amount of time on our hands and nothing planned. Day one of 20 was actually quite fun. We spent the entire day in the Botanical Gardens. And G & V scooted the whole way. They are however now throughly burnt out on the Botanical Gardens so that might not have been such a smart move. M will join them on furlough next week.

Beautiful photos! Love the scooters, and the green grass, and the beautiful chirrun -- I miss hope to see you soon. Can we figure out the Skype and timing?
Love, Lolo
