I’ve got sunshine…

It’s hot, so hot today and the wind is blowing but it isn’t cooling anything much. Here I am on my verandah though. The washing has long dried and is folded beside me (get up Tiff and put them away) and I am watching Ivy and Noah play in tubs of water, naked, free and […]

4:30 am is an obscene time to wake up.

Ugh! The sunlight breaks through the window of their bedroom. Even though they have been extremely restless all night and kept the Mummy and the Daddy up until midnight,with smatterings of resettling thereafter, even though they are so tired their eyes can barely open a crack, once the sun is up so are they. This […]

I remember…

 
I remember the day you were born. The early Autumn sun creeping through the window of the birthing room. My heart full of hope for you, eager to meet you, look into your eyes.
I remember the day you were born. The room full with love. Time marched ever onwards as we waited for you. […]

Budding artists!

This weekend we are painting Immy and Maddy’s room followed by  AJ and Mal’s. The girls have decided on a dollhouse pink, with purple and green spots and silver swirls! It sounds magical and very pre teen. David does all the block painting and I get to do all the artistic stuff.
Speaking of artists, this […]

Bedside manner.

My friend and I have decided we are going to write a book. She and I are both midwives and we are both parents to a large number of children. This is not going to be just any book. It is going to be a text book, directed towards medical students. It is going to […]

Amazing moments in my life.

My friend Tracey has started her blog over here. She has written about amazing moments in her life and has invited people to tell her about their own amazing moments. I hope you’ll pop over there and have a read. She’s just new to blogging and needs a bit of love sent her way.
Amazing moments […]

He has a big brother

For weeks Noah has noticed the photo I have of William on my tallboy. Usually he will point to it and call the baby in the picture "No - No" (the name he calls himself). I would correct him and tell him that it was his big brother William.
Yesterday he came in for his morning […]
