Afternoon all, cloudy and sunny day here. Michael and Kellie have gone home, they were so good and we love that we are still able to have them, but it was pretty full on! Yesterday was so busy for us all, we had the funeral at 10am, the children were very good at getting up and out early. After the mass, my sister took them, brought them back here, gave them lunch and made sure they were where they should be - Kellie to dancing, then the two of them to their cousin’s First Communion party, while we went off to the crematorium and afterwards to a local pub, where there was food laid on and it was good to catch up with family. I collected Michael at 5.30 as he was playing tennis, waited for him and by the time we got back home, Kellie has been brought back from the party by SIL’s brother. We were all in bed very early!!
Today we took it easy, got up around 8am, Edward made pancakes for breakfast and we had a leisurely morning. I made sure they both had showers, one thing less for Miss Osc to organise tonight, and the school clothes are washed and ready for tomorrow. Miss Osc and SIL got back here at 3.30pm, SIL took Michael and they headed home to watch the Liverpool match. Miss Osc stayed to chat for a little while, then took Kellie and our car to go to the supermarket - she gets a car this week to replace the one from the crash and we don’t need ours for the next few days. We’re pretty tired now after such a busy weekend!
