Kiwi Day

 Today was a holiday here in kiwiland, Waitangi day is our national holiday , where we get to spend time with our families.  Miss Mum was on call last night, so us girls got to sleep in - I didn't even beg for biscuits til 8.30am.  Wonders will never cease.
 Mum and I spent some of the morning in the garden, picking up leaves, a touch of weeding then I let mum go out for a bit of a wander and a shop.  She bought stuff like fennel, corriander, pine nuts and some oranges - bluch!!
After our spectacular rainfall several nights ago, our garden is looking very green and junglelike.

Mum wishes there was a mid weekend holiday every week.

    I like mid-week holidays. They make the week seem like two very short ones. And your garden does indeed look lush and green.

    That is so kind and thoughtful of you, Poppy, to let your mum have a sleep in. I am jealous of your lovely garden. what a lovely place for a kitty to rest in the shade.

    We wish we had your garden. Ours is white. We noticed mum's calendar book had your holiday listed.
