I learned that when it rains for days on end
Kids will head straight to the craft kits
And when they’ve used all their supplies up
They’ll head to the fruit basket
Then they’ll head outside and enjoy the rain
I learned that my girls will eat raw fish
If it’s prepared by singing chefs
And presented to them on a train
I found out that I’m not the only one who enjoys a glass of red with the nightly bedtime stories
Am I Nanna?
I learned that Coogie Beach is absolutely spectacular
Even in Winter
I learned that when the rain starts up again
Macaroni & Magoo put on a mean puppet show
Complete with theatrical bows an encore
(note to self, buy more socks)
I was reminded that kids like to run everywhere
And that I need a better bra
The kids learned that Nanna really can’t say no
And they couldn’t be happier about it
I watched Cactus & M&M fall become the bestest of buds
Just like I knew they would
I found someone who loves to read more than me
I learned that when having a tea party, custard tarts are essential
I learned that Magoo is not the only one who likes to rock out with her air guitar
And that Macaroni is not the only one who can draw a spot on picture of Poppy
I learned that no one looks coordinated playing in one of these balls
And nothing is funnier to watch
Lastly, looking at this pic
I know why my back is so bloody sore
I learned Sydney is the ‘Education Capital’ and it would be far more enjoyable to go with you lot! Sounds like you had a full-on, fun time. The girls must love Mum’s Homeland! Happy Trails!
