Lately | June 2018

Loving: Cooler days – at last. We have the fire going day and night now, and although it produces a lot of dust, you cannot beat it for a beautiful warm house! Watching:  The Crown, and all the David Attenborough documentaries we can. We finally have enough data to be able to use Netflix so I…

Good Things

Taking Stock | February 2017

We’ve been back at school for almost 3weeks now. Toby and Meg have been doing swimming lessons every day, while Hannah has been settling into a rhythm for high school. She commutes with me most mornings and catches the bus home in the afternoon. After decreeing that 2017 was the year to get intentional about…

Settling or Unsettling

We are kind of settled into our temporary home now. Well, as settled as you can be when the corner of the back veranda is stacked high with boxes, and every day you rifle through a box trying to find something. Hannah is loving having her own bedroom for the first time in 10 years…
