One more sleep...

And we'll be back in our home town! Hooray!

Today was official beginning of Phan's holidays... He had worked a 8am-10pm shift on Sunday... but luckily it wasn't too busy, so he was happy about that.

This morning, Beth had her first KindyRoo class... we all went together. It's a bit weird... (hard to explain... but it's almost like "alternative" education... they have very defined ways/theories on education for toddlers and base all the learning techniques on apparent research has been done into the best ways that toddlers absorb and learn)... but Phan and I don't think any harm will come of having Beth attend... the gym equipment is great... there is a little trampoline and lots of slides, monkey bars... tunnels to climb in... in addition to hand/eye coordination toys and things... it is very diverse and Beth seemed to really enjoy it. When we had the singing/Playschool type interaction part of the session, Beth was quite serious and quietly surveyhing it all... but there were moments when Beth got up and started dancing... and in the class of about 12 children, she was the only child to get up and dance... so I think her enthusiasm for dancing is unique to her! There were also things Beth refused to do... like let me massage her with a tennis ball... or lie her down on her tummy... But all in all, she took the class pretty well... I think as we go more regularly, she'll adapt and get used to it.

Okay... that's all for now... my next post will probably be from Adelaide!
