29/7/12: after cleaning out, changing things around and setting up her room, Georgia played with her dolls house, with elora joining in too – and loving it. Elora was stoked beyond belief to be wearing a real ‘Thomas’ t-shirt (which Matthew had when he was a baby). She walked around the house, telling everybody to […]

22/7/12: we had such a beautiful day out today. My very favourite moment was going on this very old steam powered merry-go-round at the Botanical Gardens. I’m not sure if I have ever been on one of these before, but I had the best time, with my little boy with me the entire time, and […]

24/6/12: one of the reasons I started doing this photo journal in the first place was to try to see the positives in each day – even the crap ones. I’ve had such a difficult day that I don’t even know if I had a positive moment. I saw a beautiful rainbow in the valley. […]
