Crazy days of Childhood

After a long time pondering when to start this blog I finally have! Even though its last minute and even though our children have already had their first few years of magic and even though Angela is leaving today on the plane....well its never to late ...or its NOW or never and we could go on pondering what all thats about but best to just get on with it.

So this is really to keep a record of the Vincent Chicks great adventures....(mostly between home, school, kindergarten and the beach, and often no further than our vegetable garden)...and how these little people grow and change and learn. Now hopefully their English relatives can have a peek and sometimes a wee laugh at the antics and goings- on.
At this very moment Armelie is 3 and 4 months and a bundle of fun and energy, we awoke to raucous singing and to my joy it was again my birthday. ( at present I tend to have an average of 3 celebrations a day, complete with songs, presents and a rather sandy cake with candles which I MUST enthusiastically eat. Luckily Lucia ( 16 mths) has only 6 teeth, as, the art of pretending to eat sand is only just occurring to her.

Tui is calling at 7am from her Daddys house beside herself and besotted with a grey Arab pony that she has discovered for sale. Meanwhile a chicken stares insanely and expectantly through the doors, no doubt leaving fresh deposits on our door step just to infuriate Mr L Chick.

Today is a sad day because Granny A is leaving to go back to England. The Vincent Chicks have enjoyed her so well. The girls will be missing her. Armelie informs us daily that she still wants to see Christopher Robin ( This started after Granny A took her to the Winnie the Pooh show)

So this was really meant to be a introduction......... what will happen tomorrow ...well who knows...dreams? icecreams?.....no doubt a few screams!

till then love love love to you all
