Code

BallFiend came home from school today and said "Mum, I want to learn to code."

Ah, that's my boy!

Of course, the reason he wants to learn to code is so he can make his own mods in Minecraft.

I'm OK with Minecraft as a gateway to geekery.

Possum vs Campervan

Thumper's writing is really coming along nicely. I love that she enjoys writing. 

Once I saw a possum it

jumped on to my head then

it jumped on to the campervan.
