Flowers.

The day started of grey, cold and wet.

Then Alexandra arrived with some flowers for me, and a box of chocolates for her Dad.  It's our birthday.

The day stayed cold and grey, with the occasional shower.  So, apart from dancing we've stayed in all day.

Mia loves her new dance teacher, and she's back to enjoying her dancing.

It looks as though the girls other grandparents may be able to get an exemption to come to Queensland, as they look after Mia 2 days a week.

But they are using the same excuse to come to her party.

This may seem a minor thing.  But how many other people are breaking the rules too.
