Little Lily strikes out on her own
Lily has gone on school camp for three days. It’s her first time to camp and her first time away from us for any length of time. It was bad enough when the big kids went away to Canberra but Lily is on her own. There are no twin sisters or cousins to keep an eye out for her.
I’m sure she will be fine.
On a little tangent, someone once told me that using the word fine was an all encompassing description for feeling insecure, neurotic and emotional without giving anything away. Hmmm…
Anyway, she will be ok. She is a strong, independent, free spirited young girl who is going to have the time of her life but I will miss her. Alot.
Me, A wonder woman?
The gorgeous Childlife from In The Eyes Of A Child has bestowed upon me this award!
It is an award that was started by Chrissy at Chrissy’s This and That to honour wonderful women and was inspired by a post that her husband wrote about her.
I am truly honoured. Thank you.
If you haven’t had a read of Childlife’s blog, you should pop on over. She is a wonderful writer and her posts can make you laugh out loud, leave you in tears or have you thinking about things for days. One of my favourites! Also an amazing wonder woman!
There are lots of wonderful women out there, whose blogs I have come across. All of them wonder women in their own right. How do you choose?
The very first one who comes to mind is my friend Trish over at My Little Drummer Boys. She has overcome so much and she really is so amazing and generous and kind, in real life and online.
The next wonder woman is Mountainmama over at Careful What You Wish For. Again, another inspirational lady who takes life as it comes and appreciates all she has been given. She is a gifted writer as well.
Finally, Megan at Imagine If. I don’t know Megan very well at all but I love her blog and what her writing represents. I’m not sure what her life has seen but I do know that her want to make Child Protection one of our most important issues stirs alot of emotions in me.
Wordless Wednesday – can’t decide
What’s a girl to do?
When you are a shoe hound, like Ivy is and you are going on an excursion out into the front yard and you have just too many shoes to choose from.
You wear one sandal (to show off your toes) and one gumboot (to splash through all the puddles)!
Of course.
