trip to christchurch
GranJan and Yogi invited Adrienne and Poppy to come to Christchurch with them for two nights. We left really early one morning so Poppy was still asleep for most of the journey….. when she woke up for breakfast, she realised Anya the dog was also with us so her face lit up!
We settled into the dog-friendly motel and Poppy played with Anya on the lawn. Then we went to the wonderful QEII pool and had fun in the white water river.
After GranJan’s birthday picnic lunch on the lawn with Anya – we went shopping! Here is Poppy in her new cart cover that GranJan made.
Poppy jumped into bed with GranJan and Yogi – WAKE UP – let’s go to the Animal Park!
In the afternoon we went to Christmas at Ballentynes where Poppy met Santa, played with all the decorations and posted her note to the North Pole.
The next morning there was lots of time for playing with Yogi before getting back on the road to Nelson.
Motherhood is about raising - and celebrating - the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that she is exactly the person she is supposed to be. And that, if you're lucky, she just might be the teacher who turns you into the person you are supposed to be.
