A mix of a day to be honest. We focused on some family issues first thing in the morning, I got my hair "done", and then re-organised my desk papers in the late afternoon.
The kids called to excitedly relay that they had gone out on the Bay of Fundy and seen a Wright whale with its young. Sophie slept through most of it. But hey, she still got a turn sailing the ship and touching the starfish and having her face painted. Photos are forthcoming I am told.
But Seb realised suddenly that he missed us. Despite all the excitement and fun, he wanted a bit of home time. So he and Sophie reached across the miles and we had a huggle. That will have to do until Friday - because it turns out that flights are really full all day Thursday - at least that's George's story and he is sticking to it.
Back at the ranch, our stay-in-and-do-chores evening was a non-starter with yet another discussion on where Seb should go to school, followed by yummy delux pasta from the freezer, and M falling asleep on the couch...
Today will be better - I am talking work first thing, lunching with an up and coming novelist, and taking in the AGO during its free Wednesday evenings.
