Well, after Kite Day, things settled back down; the weather continues to be beautiful so we have been out and about; am posting pics of the weekend when we walked to a nearby village; Theo is convinced he is a gorilla at the moment; see pic "roaring on the wall".
Despite his ape fantasy, he is really coming on well with his English reading and writing, though yesterday afternoon, it all became too much, and, believe it or not, he fell asleep at the table, with me sitting right beside him; mmm! maybe its my teaching style!
Dom is coming along great; latest update on infected eye is that the docs want to wait and see at the moment; cosmetically it is not great but his vision is unaffected so unless there is a another infection, they want to leave well alone until the final surgery at age four. But, as you can see, he is a happy chap, despite the heavy cold he had had; he even took time out to 'help' me with the housework!
Well, Ella gets her next 3 monthly grades on Friday (fingers crossed) and on Monday it is a special day in Crete; Independence day so Theo and Ella both have 'peemas' (speeches). Theo is to be dressed up as a traditional Greek soldier (he is abit wary about the 'skirt' and the fact he has to wear a pair of Ella's white tights! I just keep stressing the word 'soldier' and hope he doesn't mutiny on the day!) Watch this space for photo overload!!!!
Well that's about it for tonight; Duncan is out watching the footy; can't complain; I had a lovely treat yesterday; went with mum to Heraklion and went round all the lovely shops in the centre until closing time. Bought some summer clothes for the kids and a pair of shorts fro myself so roll on summer I say! Didn't get in till nearly 11pm after a Macs (Woohoo!) . It was SO nice to go out just as me with another woman and look at lots of nice stuff, without toting moaning kids around :)
xx Take care!
