GRANDPARENTS' DAY AT THE SALVATION ARMY

Yesterday Jan and I had the privilege of attending the special Grandparents' Day at the Ringwood Salvation Army, where Bella and Millie take their parents each Sunday.

As we swapped notes later, the key memories were of Millie dancing to the singing - what a lithe, athletic little body she has! And of Bella putting her hands together reverently for the prayer-time.

Their little friend Eva - who takes a special interest in befriending Bella, and Bella of course responds to her attention/love very warmly - sat between them.

Thanks to the Ringwood Salvos for the wonderful work you're doing: and congratulations on your efforts in last week's Red Shield Appeal.

BELLA LOVES PLAYSCHOOL


... and she's learning lots of words and numbers and sounds.
