Day 170

18th August 2022

Dawn

At 6.30am this morning, I stepped outside to go to work & was bathed with the most beautiful light, of all time.

The intensity of the colour is lost in translation in this shot.

It stopped me in my tracks.

I didn’t see the fam before I left. They were all sound asleep: warm in their beds.

Liam says they started with drawing.

Linc drew the mascot for Haminations which is Ham. He’s not a slice of ham, he’s just a little guy called Ham.

He looks like a big slice of ham. 😂 (And you can buy a plush toy of Ham for US$29.99! These YouTube kids are making a killing).

Mila began work on her next drawing for her book. This time was a panda.

I don’t have the picture yet, but here is her fish from yesterday.

She did such a great job!

The Walk

Next, Liam rounded them up and dropped Mila at gymnastics, and took Linc & Pepe for a walk to the beach nearby.

I hadn’t been home long, when they walked in the door.

I opened the front door to an exhausted looking Linc.

“He killed me!” Lincoln gasped.

“What do you mean?” I quizzed.

“He took me for the longest walk. He killed me.” He said as he flopped on the sofa.

When I looked at the pictures, he laughed the whole way through. It couldn’t have been that bad!

Hydraulics

Liam made them quesadilla’s for lunch and taught them all about hydraulics.

He plans to bleed the breaks on one of the motorbikes and figured, the kids can help with that. 😂

He explained the concept on the whiteboard and then they watched a video.

Afterwards, they watched some TV & had their computer time.

When I took Linc to soccer training a bit later, Mila took this picture of the sunset.

She loves the sky as much as her mama. 😍
