Mango harvesting


The boys have been learning about 'harvesting' at Kinder. Everyone went to one of the kid's houses to pick mangoes, which was reeeally exciting! Here Soren and Ibu Lilik climb the mango tree to toss some down to eager hands below.


Attempting a catch. One poor kid copped a mango on the head.

Washing before eating. Yum!

Weddings

Our lovely neighbours Shelley and John got married recently.

Shelley found time to feed her favourite toddler at the lunch afterwards. A funny thing: the word for 'spoon-feed a child' is the same as 'bribe' in Indonesian.

Oh so tragic.

Oh dear.

Can you not be charming, just this once?



Bingo.

It's a bit of a dust bowl, but Reuben doesn't seem to mind, and he always makes a friend.

Runs in the Family


Soren takes his place in a long line of Swan men who've passed on an uncanny ability to pack a car, a suitcase or a whatever to within an inch of its life. Stand aside, Dad!

Brotherly Love


Sharing a biscuit bag--true love.



Poor Soz--often his lavish displays of devotion and affection go unappreciated by Ruby who is much too busy doing very important things to stop for hugs.
