We finally got here
Just in time for lunch
Bed flopping afternoon
We're all so tired
One afternoon of listening
Aiden in
our room
Jasmin
delighted
With big
expanse of bed
Aiden
found his stride
Out to
play everyday with friends
Fooze
ball, ping pong, and swimming pool play
No stopping till bedtime
Bible time
Where
were we?
Let's
start again at Galatians
Theological
discussions
Flora and fauna observations for Jasmin
At least 5 new to us kinds of birds
Nests spotted right at the front door
More flopping
With
books from discovered library
Only
under 14 must be accompanied
Fresh
yummy food made for us daily
Dessert
every meal
Ice cream
on demand
No breakfasts for us
Too
tired, too full, too early
Only
Aiden is up to eat
Beach
time strolls
So many
shells
Picked,
washed, sorted, stored
Art
supplies for later
Sand castle times
Sand is
so full of clay
Soft and
beautiful
Shallow
swimming
Live sand
dollar discoveries
Could we
reach the island?
Tide
creep surprisingly swift
Better
not try
Anticipated night time beach strolls
Stolen by
gnats and mosquitoes
No
matter, no stars, cloudy skies
Mom and
dad play ping pong
Revisiting
when they met
Mom still
can't beat dad
Day trip snorkeling
Up early,
van ride, boat ride
All well
worth it
Returning
back
Suitably
sunburned and happy
Memories
of underwater splendor
Spouting
spontaneous praise
Random music story
(A girl
with a pencil
Running
after ice cream truck
Refusing
to do homework)
Kept kids
happy with new friend for trip back
A Few Bests:
Dad:
rest, uninterrupted time with mom, snorkeling
Mom:
Aiden well occupied, snorkeling, made meals
Grace:
snorkeling, deep swimming pool, flopping without Aiden
Jasmin:
flopping without Aiden, snorkeling, cool new birds, frangipani fragrance
Aiden:
everyday all day play with friends; snorkeling
Only an hour's delay
Two trains, ferry, and Grab
We hit the ground running
So it's good
Our week away was wonderful
The very next morning
Family day at church
Began with an early morning 5km run!
