September 19th: A Mom/Son bonding day...

hanging out at a Subiaco Cafe

going to the movies...

Rein and I were due for a mommy/son day so I pulled him out of school on Monday. After Tom left with Silka, we had breakfast together and got ready for our day. We left to go to Subiaco, a nearby neighbourhood, where we were going to see "Johnny English Reborn". When we got there, we discovered that the movie started an hour later than what was quoted on the internet. So, we went to a cafe to hang out while we waited. We talked about our adventures in Australia over some tea and a caramel milkshake. We then headed to the nearby second-hand store (op shop) where Rein spent some of his allowance on a footy ball that he found. We were then off to the theatre.
Other than two other people, the theatre was ours. We cuddled and held each other's hands the best we could with those theatre chairs while we laughed our way through the movie. We ended up at Hungry Jacks (Burger King, back at home) for lunch - I promised Rein it was his day and we would do what he wanted. Oh well, we've managed to avoid Hungry Jacks for 9 months...
We then headed back home with a stop at the grocery store. We then took his new footy ball and biked to the school park where we kicked it around until the bell rang and Silka was ready to go home. A fantastic day!
