Cold, wet and very stormy day in Auckland today... Picture this - happily making muffins with Emma in the kitchen, heater on in the lounge, drier on, lots of lights on when suddenly there's a power cut at 5pm... Felt a tad stressed with having to leave for work in just an hour and a half - and a whole lot to do beforehand which involved power... Emma was very fascinated by the candles and after singing 'happy birthday' to everyone we know - I decided to give Emma her first bath by candlelight. Perfect thing to do with limited lighting and Emma acted like it was a treat! I even started singing Christmas Carols deciding it was a Mid-Winter Carols by Candlelight Bath Special! So blessed to have these special moments with Em! All power is restored now - home from work and managed to avoid all fallen trees!
PS Photo not really related... but it was Emma in 2005 after her first real Carols by Candlelight service in Taupo.
