Friday

What a day !!!

Hannah had swimming at 1.30. I was there to help in the pool (4th time this week).

Hannah has progressed from not putting her head under water 2 weeks ago to swimming now. Her teacher called out to me to say to watch Hannah. There is Hannah SWIMMING. On her tummy, face in the water, kicking and using her arms to swim. It's been amazing progress - although she was ready to put her head under - had been putting her face into the water but not totally under. Now she is confident to got right under and pick things up off the bottom etc etc.

After school Hannah went off to her friend Jack's to play. I picked her up at 4.30 and then it was off to the Kindy Trikeathon. I had been asked if I would take photo's as the teachers want to use them in the children's profiles. Last year they only managed to get photo's of about 20 kids as they were busy organising the races etc.

Derek had dropped off our barbecue and baking in the morning. Then he was back straight after work to cook sausages one handed. They had sausages, hamburgers drinks and baking for sale.

Lots of little kids - lots of decorated trikes, bikes, rideon toys and scooters. Lots of tinsel. Kids had a ball. Races in their age groups. Teachers even had a scooter race. All participants got a "medal" and a prize.

It was lots of fun. I took lots and lots and lots of photo's and surprisingly they all turned out - none were blurry which was what I was scared of and was why I took so many.
