Now that Fall is well and truly here ... I'll tell you about our Summer

Part 5 of 10

Summer-time Playmates

Renatah has become quite the independent socialite this past summer. She has taken herself outside to play every opportunity she could get.

"Muma the boys are outside, can I go play", I would hear as soon as a peep was made from the boys out the front. Renatah gets along marvelously with them. It wasn't long before I could trust her to be outside with them and be safe without my constant eye on her. It was so freeing, for me and for her.

A box is such fantastic toy!!



We also had several occasions when Miss V came for a play date. It was nice for Renatah to have an older girl to play with. Muma isn't thrilled about all the 'boy games' she's been learning!!

Princesses in a castle made by Miss V. Once again ... so much fun in a box!


Tait's favourite play mate this summer has been a ball, any ball, just put a ball in his line of sight and he's after it saying 'baa .. baa .. baa'. Put him on the ground with a ball to chase and he's happy! Roll it to him, bump him with it and he's even happier!


Now that the weather is wetter and school has started play mates are not available as often and much of our time is spent entertaining indoors. Play dates still happen and much fun is had, just a different kind and we all look forward to summer returning while enjoying this season for what it is.
