KOL" 1st DAY OF SCHOOL

Kol started kindigarten this week (children start public school at 4 in Australia). They go to kindigarten at 4 and preschool at 5 "backwards from the US". On Monday we got Kol all dressed in his uniform and dad took some time off work to see Kol at his first day of school. We got to school and dad's snapping pics of Kol and we look like first time parents. Anyways, parents are looking at us kind of odd. To find out kindigarten kids do not start school until later in the week. Oops on mom. That was fun trying to explain to Kol that he did not have school that day. Kol did go to school yesterday. He shed some tears before I left "it was sad". However he had a great day. He sang "I'm a little tea pot" to dad and I and told me they have a thinking chair (time out chair "he seemed a litlle worried about that chair, ha)

Found A Great Home For Kitty

You know how sometimes you just have that feeling to say something? Well I was at the pharmacy one day and I decided to ask if anyone wanted a kitten. A girl named Melony who worked for the Pharmist, said she wanted one. She came and picked up the kitten and fell in love with it right away.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDREA January 5th

CAT NEEDS AN OWNER

So yesterday when the boys and I went into town for our run we found a little kitten. Yes, I am a softy when it comes to finding stray animals that are so furry and cute. ( note: Sue, I need you around to adopt another cat "ha") The boys loved playing with it but I noticed I did not get anything done because I was saying all day "KOl, don't pick the cat up by the tail, no the cat can not fly" "Kaleb, you can not pick the cat up by her neck". It is such a sweet cat but I think it may be sick. I have put up flyers around town but lets face it this cat was left to survive on her own. If no one claims the cat I think I will just make it an outside cat. We need an animal to chase those scary bugs away and keep those mice away from the house.
