dear Eleanor,
I am improving my gross motor skills. However I got a bit stuck and it took a while for me to figure out that I had to put one foot backwards onto the floor.
Hope and her mum came over today and we went to the park. Mum is useless on the swing car. She gets too scared.The knees of her jeans are a bit worn out from stopping half way down the slope.
I managed to hold onto and move around on the flying saucer (plastic disc with long upright chain attached to ground at bottom and frame at top).
see you tomorrow,
love Rosie XX
dear Helene,
Thankyou for the photos of your visit last year when I turned four.
Today I returned to school. The SPCA brought in a homeless puppy which I loved playing with but mum wouldn't let me bring it home.
The teachers and therapists at school have constructed an Individual Plan for me. The main emphasis seems to be increasing my attention span and gross motor skills.
love Rose Helene XX
dear Aunty Jenny,
I have been very sick for the past week with high fevers but finally I am on the mend. The Doctor says I had influenza even though I had a flu shot at the beginning of Winter.
Yesterday Eleanor and mum took me downtown to meet the Indonesians whom Dad has been taking care of. They came to see how our health services work. I was a bit sick to stay very long.
I hear you are coming to visit for a few days because there were cheap seats on offer on GrabaSeat today. I look forward to seeing you.
love Rosie XX
Hi Bill,
I am sorry you are sick also.
The good news today is that mum has finally stocked up on mango jelly from the Newtown supermarket. It is my favourite food and the only one I really want to eat at the moment. I have a PECS card for mango jelly. It took me like 5 seconds to recognise it and choose it.
I don't know where this photo comes from. I don't even think I have teeth.
love from Rosie XX
dear Johnny,
Thankyou for your get well wishes. I have been able to stay home today even though at times I still have a fever of around 40 degrees. I succeeded in a couple pushes with my legs on this car at the hospital. It was fun. When are you and your piano tuner friend coming to visit? I have to remind Dad that he has to make him a roast chicken dinner. I am using the piano more often now with Carolyn. Please give Danial a hug from me.
love Rosiepo XX
dear Tehzeeb,
I am spending the weekend in hospital. It is such a shame as the weather is lovely. There are daffodils and it is nearly spring. However I had a fever of 40.7 degrees and so I was brought to Accident and Emergency at midday on Saturday and admitted. I have had a chest xray and do not have pneumonia. It seems like it is a nasty virus. It is now Sunday night and still I am having fevers. The worse bit is being sponged down. I hate it. The next worst bit is that I didn't get to spend yesterday with Eleanor and maybe I don't even get to go to school tomorrow. I am feeling very sorry for myself.
love Rosie XX
dear Jeanette,
You would love this shop. You open the door and the aroma envelops you, drowning all of the senses. The chocolate maker is czechslovakian and in love with his chocolates.
There are some made with old czech liquor and there are chilli and wasabi but there also the traditional chocolates. Something for everyone.
love Rosie XXX
dear Godparents,
My singing career has been launched! Today at school assembly in the hall I performed. Old Macdonalds' farm was sung, E-I-E-I and then silence, into which I sung my 'O'.
This morning on 'Old Macdonalds' farm visited school. There were baby orphan lambs, a goat, rabbit and a Shetland pony. I patted them all and fed the lamb. Then I helped push the wheelchairs and walkers for the other children so they could have a turn too.
love Rosiepo XXXX
Hi Julian,
This cradle is called a jhoola. I lived in it when I was a very little baby.
Today after school I went to Little Monkees. I went there with school a couple of weeks ago. It has big play castles, a large pool of small coloured balls, a ride on and merry go round. There is one space which has continuous tv going on a big screen. Hope was there. It was fun.
Love Rosie XX
dear Alex,
Mum and dad took a day off today. They went up the coast to the sunshine and spent the day in a beach house looking over the sea. At sunset they drank wine from Castelnou and remembered our trip there all those years ago.
I went to school and then swimming where I was non-cooperative as I just felt like doing my own thing for a change. Poor Eleanor.
I hope your job in London is going well,
love Rosie XX
