Glad your family had a rest and time to build some great memories.
Good luck back in the rush!

My turn comes up in 2 weeks. When my 3rd one arrives. First Canadian in the family...
Hoping all goes well. Now they can't kick you out anymore...

Die  "ANDER" lande is amazing.  Toe ons in Holland gebly het 1998 - 2003 het ons ook lekker skoolgeld vir ons ingevoerde kinders gekry by die regering.  :laughing4:

HAHAHA! Dit was nie opsetlik nie, die winters is bleddie koud...

Het ook nie eers verwag dat die nuweling 'n Kanadees sal wees nie (ander lande gee nie die kind burgerskap nie, so hulle val dan terug op die ouers se burgerskap).
Was verbaas toe ek uitvind hy sal Kanadees wees. En hier kry jy mos vir elke kind 'n bydrae van die staat (immigrant weet dalk hoeveel?) wat ons dadelik met hom sal kry. My ander twee moet ek wat tot Feb2019 (18 maande vanaf aankoms) voor die staat vir hulle 'n maandlikse bydrae sal gee.

So I presented him his new bike, and thought it would be a good moment to teach him some life lessons. Like appreciating what you have, taking care of it and to remember that there are kids who don’t have life as easy as him. After my speech he looks at me and says “ but why is it yellow, and not red?” :bueller:

 I am not sure how much of my speech sunk in, but when I put him to bed last night he did say thanks to me for working so hard so he can have motorbikes....  ;)

Keep plugging away - it takes the young one's a while but it eventually sinks in - like when he went to bed he had some time to process what you had said.

Hier in kaasland kry jy omtrent 250 euro elke drie maande en dan toeslag vir daycare. Daycare is kak duur. 3 dae per week vir een maand kos 1100 euro vir ons. Jou toeslag word bepaal deur jou inkomste. Ek sou se average kry mense seker so 500 van die staat om te help.

That is a very good question. I am glad to see he at least know that real dirt bikes should be RED  :pot:

The Honda is a 50cc. The next Honda up is a 110cc and too tall for him. It will be a few years before he is ready for that one. The Suzuki 70cc fits in right in the middle. But I told him yellow is faster.....( but blue is even faster than yellow)

Moenie te veel vir nou worry oor dit nie ou maat. Solank jy hom aanhou bewus hou van dit sal hy dit verstaan. Moet nie te hard op jouself wees nie, jy maak hom reg groot!

Met my kinders wys ek foto's en vertel my kinders daagliks van my grootword. My oudste is nou 6, hulle begin goed dinge verstaan teen daai ouderdom.
