She’s quite the little comic and we find ourselves constantly laughing at her antics. She’s learning lots of new things all the time (with the help of her big sisters).  She recognises some numbers and letters and she knows lots of ... http://blog.thekilners.com/2009/11/26/living-in-a-turquoise-world/ Today’s a big day for our biggest girly and our littlest girly. Esther has gone for her 1st day at school and Tehilla has gone for her 1st day in kindergarten.  Let’s hope that they both enjoy it. Don’t worry. We put shoes on Tehillla ... http://blog.thekilners.com/2009/08/28/esthers-first-day-in-school-tehillas-first-day-in-kindergarten/ This morning, people in India and other parts of Asia have been experiencing the longest solar eclipse of the century. For some though, this is not the celestial spectacular that you might think it is, but instead is an omen of doom. In an age where most people ... http://blog.thekilners.com/2009/07/22/and-you-thought-superstition-was-dead/ As an avid fan of shiny things, I decided that I just *had* to get my grubby hands on a copy of Windows 7. I really like it. It’s very shiny and has lots of shiny new shiny things to keep the shiny loving people all shiny and happy. ... http://blog.thekilners.com/2009/07/08/10000-days-and-counting-sort-of/ I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Children grow up sooooooo quickly. Tehilla is the latest example in our family of children getting big and being really clever. First of all, some examples of being clever: She can sing the whole of ... http://blog.thekilners.com/2009/05/21/clever-girl-tehilla/ We recently had the car serviced (fortunately it was a relatively cheap service). A few days ago, Ruth was driving home from the shops and someone pulled her over and told her that there was a nut missing from 2 of the wheels. How did that happen? We ... http://blog.thekilners.com/2009/05/13/dont-it-go-to-show-you-never-know/ For better or worse, I have to get up early when I’m working in the office. Until the last few weeks, it has still been dark when I’ve been getting up. It’s starting to get light though at the time I get up. Now, it should also be noted ... http://blog.thekilners.com/2009/05/12/it-really-really-really-is-still-night-time/ I saw a picture today of Brad Smith (Senior Vice President, General Counsel, Corporate Secretary, Legal & Corporate Affairs at Microsoft). In the small thumbnail picture that I saw, my memory said that he really looked like Nicholas Witchell (BBC royal and diplomatic correspondent). Anyway, I thought that I should ... http://blog.thekilners.com/2009/04/06/the-tricks-that-time-plays/ Esther is starting to be a very big girl. She’s nearly 6 (well not really nearly, but she’s closer to 6 than 5, maybe you want to call it 5 and a half.) A couple of weeks ago, she got her 1st wobbly tooth. And then a couple of ... http://blog.thekilners.com/2009/03/26/esthers-getting-big/ We had to buy a new washing machine because the other one broke, which was quite annoying. Anyway, it’s currently on the 1st cycle to get rid of any water that the manufacturer used during the testing cycle that they ran.  It has 89 minutes to go.
