life with you is beautiful

"The experiences of the first three years of life are almost entirely lost to us, and when we attempt to enter into a small child's world, we come as foreigners who have forgotten the landscape and no longer speak the native tongue." Selma Fraiberg

Life with you is beautiful sounds so cliche but I love spending time with my kids - they are so much fun - she comes out with the funniest things sometimes. My favourite times with her is when she just wakes up in the morning - never know what she is going to say first to start the day. Here are some pictures of her taken over the last week.

Blessed - blue skies

Happy 2010 - amazing to think another year is upon us. Funny how things like that pass some of us by - they are both pretty unawares except that I mentioned it to her. I hope to stress less, worry less, enjoy my children more, get more sleep and enjoy each moment life throws at me - hope I notice the blue skies. I don't tend to make new years resolutions:) Some photos of memories of this year...

Peace on earth good will to men

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas with love and hope and peace this Christmas season and hope that you are able to be with family and friends/loved ones. My children have really brought the magic back into Christmas for me - not that it was really lost but for me it isn't about the presents but about seeing their excitement over the festivities.

A quote to share - Life isn't about waiting for the storms to pass ...its about learning to dance in the rain - swiped it from cd muckosky's blog. I need to remember that:)

Joy to the world

It's a week til Christmas. It was nice to take time out today and do something special with family. See next posting of up the garden path. Have done the prima BAP LO for December just need to add journaling and a title - of my son for a change and pleased the way the papers seem to complement him.

Up the garden path..

Cool name for a cafe - the kids had a blast and after we ate there was music and the kids were captivated with them - he was so good - he fell asleep on the way there as well as the way back.

The Ark - first official day

It was the first day really to prepare for next term - she was so confident that Miriam more or less suggested that I go home and come back - the little man was having as much fun too though painting etc
