Margie loves her new kindy as she calls it. Here is a pic of her on her first day, ready and excited to be joining the big kids in having her own little space in the world outside home.

After their second 7 week long holiday in a year, the kids finally headed back to school. Woo hoo!!!

The day before they were due to head back Xander fractured his left arm in a scooter accident, so he bravely trundled off to school with his arm in a sling. Hopefully, it will heal quickly. Thankfully he is right handed.

It was Eleanor's first day of school in Australia. She soon discovered that it was a different uniform and school, but the same old routine. She loved it.

Their return to school also coincided with our 10 year wedding anniversary. Surely that has to be a good omen.
