26 August 2010

Temperatures are still hitting circa 35C. Emily amazed me by not waking in the morning, despite going to bed at 7.30pm the night before. I had to go in to her several times until 4am, but next thing I knew, I woke instinctively knowing it was late and a glance at my watch told me it was just past noon!

We just had time to go over to Julia's in the afternoon. Emily and Charlize were a bit cagey around each other after a long parting, until it was nearly time to leave when they warmed to each other again. I was really fed up that Emily's old leaf habit reappeared so I did not let her take one from the bush outside Julia's that she always picks from. She bawled all the way to the supermarket, then cried most of the way home as I would not give her a snack (I knew she was ravenous but gritted my teeth because it was dinnertime and I didn't want a third night of her missing her main meal of the day). At least her late time to bed meant that she got to see Nick. He came home incredibly early at 8pm.
