Oranges and Jerseys

When the rugby season is on, we are given several ‘opportunities’ to do the oranges and washing the jerseys. It was our turn for Kawea’s team.While he was at choir rehersals I took the jerseys to the Laundromat. Hikawera, Renata and Rakai decided they would help to fold the jerseys. Warm and dry!! Hikawera did a great job. If you know him, he is a perfectionist and loves order and processes. He was successful in showing Renata how to fold the jerseys the right way. Ren was a good student. Rakai just thought it would be great trying on as many as he could!!!

Flashback - Rotten teeth?

I was putting the boys to bed the other night, and as usual you go through the usual teeth toilet, bed etc... I asked Rakai, did you brush your teeth? He said no. (He was honest) So, I said, "do you want your teeth to fall out while you are asleep?" He answered with a sad look on his face, "yes, cause then I can get some money". Oh that was such a Rakai thing to say!! I had to counter that (trying not to laugh) by telling him that the tooth fairy doesn't give money for rotten teeth! Then, Hikawera pipes up saying he got $5 for a rotten (dead actually from being banged) tooth that the dentist had to pull out. I had to go into real damage control then!! Rakai comes out with the funniest things sometimes. He is golden.

Volleyball

Teancum really enjoys playing volleyball. He jumped right into the teams at boys high, and within a couple of weeks, he was in the 'A' team. They came runner up this season to a solid Hillcrest school team. An awesome group of boys.

Hakarimata's again!

Yes, we did it! We climbed the Hakarimata's again. Still hard, still so rewarding!!
