Hannah

Every 2nd or 3rd weekend, Arthur and Danny sleep over at the manse, and we get to spend some time with Hannah.  Each week she does and says new things.  She LOVES the telephone.  Here is a sequence of photos, with my added captions.
                                                         " Hullo, Hannah speaking..."

                                                             "Ooh, tasty bit of gossip...."

                                                                     "How terrible!"

                                                               "Must tell Mary"

One of our church folk (Wendy Henry) told me that she saw Hannah outside her Nana's flat the other day.  She was passing wet clothes to her Nana (Danny's mom) to hang on the clothes line.  She said "Hullo" to Wendy, and then informed her "I working."

91 years old

Today is Mildred John's 91st birthday.  She is an amazing lady.  Still reads WITHOUT glasses, and walks without a stick, and has the most beautiful skin.  She has become a special part of our group in Jamestown.

The rains have come as usual during August, and with them, the beautifull arum lillies are once again lining the roads

Week end with Arthur and family

I had an enjoyable week end.  Arthur and Danny and Hannah slept over and I was able to spend a little more time with Hannah.  The stairs are her favourite spot in the manse.  We sit and "read book" on the bottom stairs;

 or count to 10 as we climb the stairs, making sure we "hold on" to the railing;

or we can have a tickle and a cuddle.

Arthur managed to save a little turtle dove from the claws of the cat.  Needless to say, we, as well as our neighbours, no longer have a problem with mice.
