The sun doesn’t need to be shining for the beach to be the perfect place to be. I’m feeling a little sentimental about another Summer coming to an end here soon. Still enjoying what’s left of it & not at all ready to let it go.
Linda has been wanting a photo session for her family for a little while now. She wanted some images captured before her boys grew out of their younger years & with their eldest starting high school this year, it really was the right time to stop & celebrate their family as they are now. Linda & Malcolm’s story goes...
My 4 year old started pre-school this week. It’s a big change for us. It’s the first time she will spend any time out of our care. It’s only 2 days a week & she will still be with me 5 days a week, but I will enjoy those days even more knowing that...
She learned to stand at 8 months old… she was talking at 9 months old… she was walking at 11 months old…. today she turned four and… … she’s learning to fly. Happy 4th birthday my Ava.

There are so many reasons I am grateful for these days. I harvest them like the most important fruit of our lives. At the beginning of the season of motherhood it seemed that there would be so many days to fill with my children, but the truth is there will never be enough & although the days...
Oh Lisa,
I loved seeing all the photos of your precious girls and you + Pete creating such an incredible family life together. I just love the way you wrote that – it’s so wonderful to see other families enjoying the journey too. You are a wonderful mama who is investing so much for the long term in your children right now! What an fabulous job you are doing. What a heart to love and serve. Bless you in all you do as a family.
Love Lusi x

Your family life is always inspiring & encouraging.

I’ve created a few little ‘book corners’ in places through our home… just little spots where the books are gathered… where little hands have access to stories & pictures, to inspire their imaginations & often their play. Here are just a few we’ve enjoyed this year… SO MANY DAYS Written by Alison McGhee & beautifully...
I think picture books can be an incredibly powerful story telling medium. When you find a book where the words and picture really work together, it’s magic. Pearl Barley and Charlie Parsley is one I adore, and Andrew Daddo’s Check on Me. I”ll have to review them on my blog!
I also enjoyed So Many Days.

Thanks Katrina,
We love ‘check on me’ too!!
I’ll have to find the other one you mentioned now too.. any excuse 🙂
Out of town. We set out early. Pete had a work conference while the girls & I spent an entire day at the fair. Delight over Ferris wheels, baby animals & honey lollipops. A long walk back to the hotel past lakes & swans & a park filled with beautiful light. Anouk slept… Ava skipped…...
