Lil Man with his Dhol
It was cold, really cold, slightly damp, but Lil Man’s day for Drumming came.
The local Football Stadium had invited children from his team to drum and dance, along with other community cultural groups, as multi cultural pre match entertainment.
They did splendidly, and got a whole bunch of football supporters dancing too!
The Dhol Team
Well done kids! We’re very proud of you!

Well he had his game already, and now his #1 passion, playing the dhol, takes centre stage!
He’s been playing this drum since he was around 2 (obviously a smaller one than what he uses now!) and *proud mummy alert* he really is rather quite good!
Tomorrow, he has been invited to play, along with some others in a group he plays with, at the local football stadium!!
So excited is he!!
Well I’ve kinda obscured the face but here he is in action at a wedding last summer!
You might well be bigger than me…heck my dhol’s bigger than me!
My own mini fan!!
Wish him luck folks!

You should know by now, my mornings are always manic, on a school day, and why would today be any different?
I mean Yay! It’s Friday! But still manic!
The kids have their class photos today so we need to be extra specially neatly turned out, mummy included. So we need speedy wake up, a,d speedy eating, and speedy changing so hair can be done beautifully…
Well the nights sleep atop my mattress on the floor was surprisingly lovely, though we got the stealth visitor firmly ensconced between us, when I woke up, again! (How does she do that? I still haven’t figured out how she gets in without us knowing!) Lil Man up bright and breezy as he usually is, in fact he’s already changed and ready!
Lil Princess… Erm, well she’s eaten… After being literally dragged from my mattress! Here’s where bad mummy comes in..
Me: what do you want for breakfast? Something you can eat quickly!
LP: cereal! Without milk!
Me: ok fine!
Now I would never usually allow that, but needs must! How nutritional!
Frosties! without milk! appealling,mbut so not healthy!
Yay she’s changed! Now to tackle the hair demands!
Catch y’all later!! And have a fantactic Friday!!

Well, it wasn’t quite the victorious homecoming that they had hoped… They lost 4-0!
But in their defense, it was a first match for a lot of them too. And the other team was older, more experienced, oh and our goalie suffers from ADHD…
And they came back smiling!
Oh and for Lil Man an extra boost, Daddy came to see the match! Hubby Dearest had asked me whether he could go watch it, so I found out, and was very impressed that he took time out to go support the kids!
(Though Lil Man said he was shouting to him, telling him what to do too much, and he kept on getting subbed!)
Ha ha lol!!
Next time eh! We all have to start somewhere!!!

Well.
He is rather excited. The day has come finally for his first football (soccer) match!
The last one got cancelled as his coach rather selfishly injured his head the day previous to,the match, so hopefully this one will go as planned!
Wish him luck!
