April

So many fun developments this month - Esther has started singing along to songs in the car and at home, and even inviting Mum or Day to join in (Mummy is more enthusiastic about this development). She is also very keen to do craft - painting, drawing, cutting and pasting - which can be lots of fun. Colouring in in particular has become more interesting to her and she is taking more care as well. She was very excited for Easter - especially when the Easter Bunny left eggs at Pre-School and Rainbow Cottage, and then visited us at Jindabyne as well! She also scored a second-hand Elsa and Anna doll which are her constant companions - only five hours of searching for their shoes so far. Esther was happy to see Uncle Jay and Auntie Lauren and meet her new cousin Juna (born 1 April 2016).
