My Olympic Ribbon Gymnist

This is really a have to be there kind of moment. Arama Teancum is quite a character most of the time. When he is in a good mood, he is hilarious! We have been working hard at cleaning up our farm over the school holidays. Nauvoo had found a roll of white ribbon in the rubbish pile we were loading for the tip. Teancum had the brainstorm with the wind so strong as it was he had the idea to make it fly.

At first I thought to growl him for being on top of my car.... yes on top of, I mean he is almost 6ft already. but then took a chill pill and found my "olympic ribbon gymnast. He was making that ribbon go! I figured the reason he was on top of the car was to get more height. I think I 'll buy him a Kite!





The photo's that show dotted white lines is the ribbon in circular motion... My phone camera is not the best but it gives you a good taste of what he was doing...

Gold medals all round! lol!!

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.
