Sitting outside enjoying the typical
Melbourne balmy afternoon with the family. Said to the kids, it's noisy out here. Kaitlyn is our three year old and is pretty as her mum ( tis nearly Christmas...) says by way of explanation, "It's the tennis". Took a while for the penny to drop, but she meant that it was the Crickets chirping their song. Did we all laugh!!! Her brother plays both sports so......
One of those special moments.
Merry Christmas to everyone.

Andrew & Jen, where would we be without dear little children in our lives? Their innocence brings smiles to our faces and smooths the furrows from our brows. I cannot wait until our Grandies hit the scene this Christmas, they are just at a beautiful age, where the trouble they cause, is very minor. ( to us grandparents anyway) They love coming here from the city as we have lots of creatures. We have 2 little boys for this Christmas and another 2 babies (so far) expected for next year, January 27, and April 15. Our 2 year old who lives 4+ hours away, wanted to talk to our Cockatoo on the phone, so our daughter explained that he could only talk to Nannie. So when he gets on he says "hello goat" (as we have a couple of pet goats). We spent many minutes not able to talk as we were laughing so hard. I never wanted to be called Nannie, somehow I am stuck with it now. Andrew, just a little bit more counselling, you should tell Jen how pretty she is, 5 times minimum per day, not just Christmas, in a womans mind she uses her maths at Christmas and adds up the yearly total. Geoff better get his running shoes on, he is a long way off his yearly total. :-) So much for my counselling. Jen

Well Nannie, thanks for the good advice. You don't reckon that Jen will end up with a big head do you. Have to have trouble with fitting it through our front door coz five times a day seems a bit excessive for a bloke like me - though darling if you read this, you do deserve it because you really are stunning.
Nice story about your grandkids.
Hope that you and Billy have a nice Christmas too.

Andrew, Oh, that was so nice to publicly tell Jen she was stunning.
WELL DONE!!! VHA! No, women don't get big heads, they never have a chance, they no sooner think how stunning they are, when something comes along and it gets wiped out of their mind. You think 5 times excessive , not at all, when you first wake, when you leave for work, a note under your pillow for when she makes the bed, when you come home and just before you go to sleep. Jen, if you are reading this, I am not being hard on your Andrew, just giving him some "love forever" pointers. I hope you can pass some on to Geoff. As for being a Billy,nah, he smells better than one of them:-) Hope your family have a very relaxed and happy time together over Christmas also. Jen

Andrew,
You are so right! Ours in in the "terrible 2's" stage (although we're told it really should be the "terrible 3's") but in his better moments he more than makes up for it. Yesterday we're out in the car and he says "Look mummmy, a truck and a tractor!". I said "There is too" but was very quickly corrected, "No mummy, only one!" I stood corrected rather than try to explain the difference between two and too.
