Max's first sentence and Skipples
Yesterday Max said his first sentence.. "Bye Bye.. Car". Poet Genius!
He has been relishing books with pictures of farm animals, wild animals, cars and trains. His favourite game is to be asked: Where is the Horse. He points to it, smiles a wicked grin, and lets out a neigh. Ditto for cows and sheep. I'm always amazed when he knows a word I have not taught him.
We were throwing sticks in the pond at Anzac park the other day, and I was impressing Laura with some fine skipping rocks and teaching her the word ripple. Everytime I found a flat one she begged me for it, and chucked it in the water... "Look Daddy .. I made a Skipple".
Laura has started drawing people. Me and Julia look like Jellyfish, but I think she is drawing our souls. Art Prodigy!

Anzac Day 2008
Laura caught me eating her Nutrigrain cereal the other day. She glowered at me and told me in measured terms that she was "...ferry, ferry, ferry upset with me. You cannot read me a story tonight. Only mummy." Today she told me it was OK that I ate her "Nutergrain".
She gave toys to Max in the bath that he was howling for. She understood that his need was greater, and that she should share. Very grown up. I don't get it.
Max took a 1.5m swan dive off a playground climbing gym, and landed on his front. I was helping Laura, and lost sight of him for 30 seconds. He must have climbed the three tiers of stairs to get up. I had that moment of fear as he smacked into the ground, but he was so shocked he did not cry as Mum dust him off.
