Happy Birthday Mackinley

Just bursting with pride at how you are growing into a fully functioning human being.

Soccer was cancelled today, due to rain, but this was him in action about 2 weeks ago. Actually going for the ball, not the man, this time!!!

You know, he's been through a lot the last 4 or so years. He bears the scars of living with a difficult brother, both physically and emotionally. I count myself lucky that Mackinley is strong and intelligent enough to understand what's going on. He doesn't have to like it, but he gets it.

I caught him being super nice to Rainer the other day...LOL. I won't ever tell him, but I heard it. And I heard him telling one of his mates off...."No, you have to do this if you want Rainer to play with you!!" so edifying as a parent to hear all the GOOD stuff being repeated by your children; or maybe he was enjoying bossing his mate around.

I'm getting all my medical paperwork ready for end of financial year....what ho, what fun!!

No other news as yet. Will have much to share in the next week or so. And I'm just sooooo excited....

but first you must go here and become a "follower".

Just trying to stay rested and healthy. Damn this cool, dry weather!!! Give me hot and humid any day.
