The 2nd October 2009 we made our Forever Journey to Taiwan to hold Polly Jane Ya-Huei for the first time......where has one year gone?
After such a very sedentary & quiet start, Polly has certainly made up for lost time with a frenzy & zest for all things fast & immediate, how full of life she is, a great achievement for such a little person. On Forever Day we share the childrens life story books & talk about Taiwan & the very special birth family that loveingly & selflessly gave Polly to us, her Forever Family, so that she would have big love, nurtue & the chance for something greater. We thank god for these special parents & must never forget the huge sacrifice they have made & the loss they endure.
As part of the celebration.....dad was away selecting rams....we made slime & then had slime wrestling ......ummmmm What was I thinking!!!
All was going very well, until slime (made with Lux flakes & water plus food dye) entered certain areas of the body. Suddenly children stopped & froze & then the screaming started. Into the bath we fled for a good soaking.....much better after that. Toby tells me that "it got up my bot bot mum & it stings".
Running the dogs later in the day, Toby tells me that the girl dogs run first & then the boy dogs. I asked him why this was & he said very matter a factly that the girl dogs are in dream land. I did not have to say another word, but had to turn my head for fits of laughter. Thought David handled that question very well.
