Hillery left for Palmerston North last night to visit her sister, Julia, for the weekend. I took the kids downtown to Waitangi Park for the Wellington Festival of Circus. Sawyer tried his hands (and feet) at juggling and spool balancing. He also took a roll across a swimming pool inside a gigantic beach ball. I couldn’t help but worry he’d asphyxiate. A thin layer of condensation covered the inside of the ball toward the end of the ten-minute run. I wonder if this is how the attendants know it’s time to change kids.
We had crepes for lunch: one ham, cheese, and sweet corn; one chocolate, coconut, and cream. We returned after Ivy’s nap for Stop 60, an acrobatic play about a couple who meet and fall in love at a bus stop. The kids were captivated for the entire 40 minutes. Even Ivy, who kept asking me questions during the performance.
Afterward we had another crepe and then cotton candy before taking a sunset walk along the waterfront to the cable car stop. I sure do love my kids.
