My Nieces

Are growing up far too quick... Skye is six-and-a-half, Eden turned three a month ago and Jessie is one-and-a-half. The time goes by so quickly. Being 'semi-retired' [I liked that designation from a friend], I have had more time to see them: Eden and Jessie in particular as Skye is at school usually. But with it being NSW school holidays I took Skye bowling today; it was great to spend more time with her as she is growing so fast and with me being obsessive about work for so long I did not get a lot of time to spend with her lately. She has started netball, and I try and get to the games [luckily on Saturdays...], and she is going very well with her swimming and at school. Eden will start swimming school soon, and her vocabulary is increasing by the day. She has got a bit shy of late, though talks and talks to me who goes by the name 'Ke-Ian' [Uncle Ian] currently. Jessie is obsessed with endless rounds of 'Ring-a-ring-a-rosey', even if she does sit down a bit early [on 'a-tishoo'], and a book titled The Sheep Says 'Baa'; you can see her joining in in this video. I am so blessed to have such wonderful nieces.
