Jack Frost's first visit - but not the last....

I've had a busy couple of weeks learning more than I probably wanted to know about premature babies with two friends in Queen Margaret at the moment; Caroline from Leith Valley and wee Jack and Nic with even smaller Nina. Nic, the daughter of our previous minister at Lower Hutt, married a Southland farmer. Today they moved Nic up to the fifth floor - that means she is much better. In fact, Nic and Caroline are in the same room which should make visiting simpler.

We've just had parent teacher interviews at Opoho school. This is always a pleasant time for us; Hannah continues to progress in leaps and bounds and Zach's teacher has figured out a way to keep him engaged. Both teachers have the good sense to enjoy teaching our children and the children love learning. Long may that continue!

Chris had a big weekend, preaching on Sunday and taking communion at North Taieri, plus a men's breakfast on Saturday at the airport, getting the inside lowdown on the fire engines and jet engines. They even did some demo's for the boys, emptying litres of water on the tarmac. Wow!

We've just bought a lounge suit, half price sale, been talking about this for years. So the living space is looking quite different now. It is my favourite colour - chocolate!

Soccer was cancelled because of the snow and wind chill on Saturday. Which worked out well, as Chris was over at the airport at the time. And Janine sang with the Year 8 girls in church on Sunday which went down a treat. Mosgiel is such a supportive church!


And this week we have my cousin Jo staying with us for a couple of nights while she does a pharmacy assistant's training course and some sightseeing. That's us, folks!
