So I guess by now you’ve figured that either we’re dead, or we have been really enjoying grandparent time, seeing as we basically haven’t touched the blog in 2 weeks. (It’s the latter, in case you were worried that there are blogs in the after life.) We just got home a few hours ago from the Great Barrier Reef and while I enjoyed being completely unplugged while there, I’m also looking forward to getting caught up and reconnected.
So, on the off-chance that anybody is actually still reading this, we’ll try to get some updates posted soon. Now that Nana & Papa are leaving tomorrow we will return to having no social life and plenty of time for writing. :)
Glad you had some fun. Don’t worry, it’ll all be over and you’ll be leaving too before ya know it and you’ll have your social life and everything else back. You’ll probably also be looking back over your blog and pictures, thinking how much you miss those ferry rides and waking up to that spectacular view. Hopefully by the time this is all over you will even have friends there that you will miss when you leave.
Make the most of every day and though it may be lonely and tough for now, try to find something positive in the day before bed each night. It will lift your spirits. Something that helps with the mundane of the day to day with little ones can be something as simple as adding just one thing new each day, even in the simplest ways. Like if you want to give Naomi a chance to finger paint but don’t have paints, grab some mustard and ketchup or pudding or anything really and plop her on the shower floor and let her paint up the shower. When she’s done, rinse it all down the drain and voila had fun and got clean.
Take care!
What a great idea about the finger paint! Love it!
