A little off topic – but I need to make a living too, right? Nothing makes Mr G. find a cool new site about Solar Energy as fast as mentioning it on my blog…
“When you were young you had red hair…” mused Leilani. “You looked like Pippi and Ariel?” I answered truthfully “Well not quite. But I did have red hair like they do.”
Leilani sat swinging on the horse swing and obviously was lost in deep thought. Then: “I want rainbow colored hair.” I had kind of expected something like that so I answered: “Once you are grown up, and are at a university and have moved out of or house you can have your hair rainbow colored…”
That changed the topic “But, but, but, I don’t want to move out…” Leilani looked like she wanted to cry. I tried to explain “Only if you want to… I don’t live with Oma either…”, but made it worse. So I picked her up, off the horse swing for a big hug and assured her we’d never make her move out. Come boyfriend, husband, baby…
On Thursdays I go to her new co-op school with Leilani. She still loves her new school, and is much more balanced and a lot more fun to be around. Recently she talked about how beautiful her old school was, and how she missed Jupiter the cornsnake… I was pretty afraid that she would want to go back there, but she just wants a pet snake…
This is the playground. Actually, just a small part of it.
Regina is a new best friend
Leilani climbs with Regina and Kieron – what is the chance of meeting a boy with (almost) the same name as her cousin?
Playdough is still an all-time favorite

The fort…

Not at the school. But proof that she really likes artichokes.
Youtube upgraded! My videos are still just as shaky, but now look a lot better… still a little worse than on DVD…
