It's a sunny day in England!!! First one!
It is so awesome to be here with these kids - all 4 of them! Watching Brandee and Rob brings back so much from Offutt and Arkansas. Kaia goes ninety to nothing and is way smart - scary smart. Ava is ADORABLE - cuddly and cooing.
Rob and Robert are out golfing and Brandee put on some water to boil for tea. Suddenly, she said, "Do you smell something burning?" and we look over and there's flames coming out of the burner. So I put a lid over the top of it, but it didn't go out - air coming from the other burners keeps feeding it. Cover the other burners, it's still going. HMMMMM? So I put a chunk of flour on it - it rears up and sparks and continues burning. Fine. So Brandee gets me some baking soda and it flares up again (like it's saying 'A Ha! I'll get you now, my chunky!') and it finally dies.
Smoke everywhere, Kaia asking for toast and no alarms or nothing to quiet up.
Lesson - fires in England are tenacious.
