When Mum went back to work

Today my mum went back to work to teach in her old class room but with different children and I am going to stay with Nana at my big house.  


So we wave mum off to school and as her car heads up the road and turns out of site I am expecting a text message, last minute reminders...... I am confident that Peta will have a great day back at school and Rowan and I will do nanna things, promise not to spoil him too much.


I purchased a cute book note book when I visited the Rozelle Markets from Retro Star Designs, these well made notebooks are made from Little Golden Books,  taken apart, good quality white pages are added and cleverly rebound with a sturdy spiral spine, they are also available on Madeit.  
I plan to use the journal to jot down little things that Rowan does during his days with me.   

Hey! is that you Rowan, riding up front

Lot's of things to talk about..and the places we will go, and who we'll meet along the way.

Today it was cloudy and cold we rugged up for a walk to the park and when we came home I took lots of pictures of Rowan wearing funny hats I have been crocheting.

Rowan had a sleep (not for very long) and then I read him a story and then another one.

Rowan's library is cleverly made using Ikea spice racks as the shelves, and the best feature, you can keep adding to it.
The spice racks are $2.49 each and they hold up to eight children's books.

A Royal Kiss......A new beginning

Feeling the love today....

Reflecting.....

Guess Who?

Some years ago when my daughters were developing their love of art and illustration, drawing tattoos on Barbie Dolls, decorating the walls with crayon murals, doing makeovers on the faces of super models on my woman's weekly's they also managed to deface every character on the family 'Guess Who' game.


Cleaning out the toy box one rainy holiday, we found the 'Guess Who' all in good working order except for the defaced character's.  Lauren, (2nd daughter) who was quick not to be reminded and reprimanded once again, piped up and told me she didn't like those people anyway, they were really scary and looked mean. That's when I got the idea to repair the game, and in doing this creating a holiday activity, that would not only be fun for the day but could be used again and again.


Firstly, we got the photograph box out and picked enough family pictures to place in each of the flaps of one board, then we made two copies of each picture and replaced them into the flaps.  
How exciting our very own family 'Guess Who'  The girls loved and cherished that game for years, changing the pictures several times over.


To my surprise when I was surfing the net for holiday activities I came across this picture on 'Pinterest'.


I can't wait to make one for Rowan

Thank you

I can't remember the last time I opened the letter box, the real letter box that is, the one attached to the fence and pulled out a hand written envelop addressed to me in person.  In fact I can't remember the last time I wrote a letter or a card, addressed it, put a stamp on it and posted it.
To my surprise, when I arrived home last week, I had two such letters.  One from my dear friend Lucy thanking me for a dinner party and one from my daughter Peta, thanking me for planning Rowan's Christening.  I am happy to admit that my eyes filled with tears of joy and appreciation and gave me something to muse over this long weekend.  This week I will start a 'thank you' card collection buy a bundle of stamps and next time I want to say Thank you, I will enjoy a brisk walk to post box, smile at the passers by, and stop long enough smell the roses.
