Adam has been at home with me the last two days with some sort of virus. It has been good to have some alone time together and enjoy the little person he is becoming. I can feel us coming out of the threenagers and settling into a new phase.

He is the family clown in many ways and can diffuse a tense situation without even realising it. Yesterday in the car Grace was having a moment and taking it out on Eli. I was in the process of discussing the situation when out of the corner seat comes this voice ” look guys it’s 10C outside,” of course it wasn’t 10 degrees but the change in subject to the weather by the 3 year old was rather amusing and broke the tensions.

Today we built a whole Lego city with trains, planes and a house to live in.
