Another busy fortnight with a visit to the pediatrician on the 11th of February. He was happy to see how she is progressing but annoyed that she still has no operation date for her leg. He saw lots of changes in her though which was good. Amarina has also started eating more of the food that the rest of us eat and loves 2 minute noodles. She loves most pasta also which is good.
Day care has been going well for Amarina and she loves being there with the other kids although she misses Kye. The other kids there keep an eye out for her and make sure she is happy. It's so funny to see her getting looked after by the others when we let her cope here by doing what she is comfortable with. Amarina has a little step there now which she uses to climb up to the sink so that she can wash her hands before and after eating.
Now for the bad news. Amarina was weighed on Tuesday the 17th of February and lost 380 grams bringing her weight back down to 10.65 kilo's. No matter how much she eats the heat will always get to her and make her lose. Amarina is happy though and that is all we can ask for.
The fires here n Victoria has been devastating and the day care centre is having a fancy dress day this Monday to raise funds for the victims. Kye's school is having an auction on the 27th of February to raise funds for the victims also and have had some wonderful items donated to them. It is great to see the support that people have given during this time of such loss.
Kye is still enjoying school and on the 16th of February he took his dog for news. All the kids loved seeing Deedia there and Kye was so proud of being able to talk about his dog. He is making more friends there and a lot of the kids in higher classes know him, so as we enter or leave the school there is this chorus of kids saying bye to Kye. He brings home a reader every night and sits there reading it with us. He is becoming more and more independent since starting school although he calls is class.
Not much else has happened here. My eldest niece turned 21 on the 17th of February and had a great day. The weather is warming up here again this week so we are all praying that the fires do not make a return.
Hope everyone has a great week with their loved ones and take care of yourselves.
