We have had a nice week, with the usual bickering and squabbling but no huge dramas. It was Mother's Day on Sunday, and it was the first time in four years that we told the kids, and I had a real Mother's Day! I was totally spoilt, like on my birthday, and it was really lovely. We went to my parents' place for a family lunch, and Georgia and Mark came too, because they were up on the coast visiting for four days. It was great to have family around again. Lunch was really fun! Poor Georgia and Mark though - it rained every day they were here. The weather was pretty terrible, but the day they left, the sun came out again. They didn't really get a good idea of why it's called the Sunshine Coast!
We didn't have Taekwon Do or horse riding on Tuesday, so we had an at-home day. I have been getting the kids to do their school work for their yearly registration, and we are almost done. I have to admit, it hasn't been much fun and has really added to my stress levels!
Today we had our last OT session with our OT, Toni, who is moving to the UK. It is sad to see her go and not to have her support anymore, however it is really nice to know that we will be free every Thursday morning, or at least we will be able to schedule other activities then so we won't have to cram things all into one day. This morning the kids also went to the chiropractor who saw big improvements in both of them. Carmie's pelvis is more stable and she has more strength in her lower half, and Arley's palette is flattening out, so all of his dental exercises are working. So good!
Carmie has still been going to her social groups which she is really enjoying. On Wednesday her and her two friends went out bike riding. It's so nice to see her doing things that other kids do! I wish I could get Arley on to a bike...maybe some time this year?!
I don't have much else to add, so until next week!
