Charades

Brayden 7Y7M18D
Bevlynn 3Y4M12D

We played charades. Four of us took turns acting out and let the others guess. 

Brayden acted: Zombie eating brains, Lord of the rings (just fighting with mei mei), Panda (cooking with a Pan and chomping louding on something invincible) 

Daddy acted: Milk shake (milking a cow and drink and shake like crazy), Fan (rotating like a ballerina and rotating the hands to the side in big circles like a helicopter) 

Mommy acted: Fresh milk (milking a cow), Flamingo (one leg up), Sun Flower (Round and smelling of flower in the hands) - Bevlynn was very fast in guessing correctly; within 3 seconds. 

Bevlynn acted : Kangaroo (hopping around), zombie (eat brains), floor is lava (hopping around)

It was fun and the children loved it. We should play it again! 

Bevlynn is sick again this week. High temperature and cough. The school has children having HFMD again. 

Brayden had Children Day and Sport Day in his school. He loves it. He's such a mess. There are black stains on his face, nose, everywhere. At times, he'd be back with some new rashes on his face. Even right after he washed his face, the stains are not completely gone, he's just a very dirty boy. 

He's been lectured a lot about his hygiene, but it had just fallen on deaf ears. 

There was a nice movie Khel Khel Mein about couples hiding secret lives from their spouses. In all marriages, there are various differences, conflicts and challenges. The spouses should work together in a partnership to overcome all difficulties and not to sweep it under the rug. The more and longer the problems are pushed aside, the marriage will continue with pretense of happiness and it will feel more distant. It does not have to be perfect but we have to constantly work on it.
