One Fine Day





Today was a perfect September day. No, Saint Kilda didn't play. As my sister pointed out, I need to stop basing good days versus bad based on how well our footy team went.

Instead, it was a very warm 29 degree Spring day. We started at 6am (what else with a 9 month-old), had yum cha with the family, then went back to the parents for coffee and cake.

Random chatter, putting children down for a nap, how-about-some-cake now, look-what-baby-did, is that your baby or mine?, let's have a look at the garden, gee it's a warm day, more coffee, more cake, let's make blocks for baby to knock down, more laughing, I'm going to pick some parsley, time to go home, baby needs another nap, a warm goodbye to someone dear - Tschüß Oma.

On the way home, sleeping baby in the back. Off to get a snack for afternoon tea (shoo-fly buns), ah, home. Dinner prep, baby to bed. Plop on the couch, put our feet up.

self-discovery

It's not about how much time you have, it's what you do it that counts.

An unsual bright and warm winter's day. At the cusp of spring. Ah, welcome Spring.
