Today we snuggled up on the couch to watch Dorothy the Dinosaur
Today you asked "Emily wants a little taste of Mummy's fried egg"
Today you celebrated my pretend birthday again!
Today you went to bed happily until you spotted a hangnail
Today you told me "40 to seven, time for bed"

    What Did YOU Want To Be When You Grew Up?

    What Did YOU Want To Be When You Grew Up?:

    I’ve always had dreams of what I’d be when I grew up. I dreamed of being an author, artist, of leaving my mark on the world. I remember in primary school talking to my friend about how I was concerned that I should achieve something “great” in my life so people would remember me after I was gone... read more at Log Your Memory

    As you think back about “what you want to do when you grow up,” did your path twist and turn or has it been smooth sailing?

    One Year ago: Celebrate Monday from Simple Scrapper

    Celebrate Monday | Celebrate Memories | Simple Scrapper:



    This week’s prompt:

    one year ago


    One year ago we were waiting for our siteworks to be completed on our new block. Phill got a new job in Perth, and we started to think about finishing our time in Kalgoorlie. Emily was learning new words and loving to pour water on herself in the pram whenever Mummy and friends went out walking! I was working for Edith Cowan Uni again. We led homegroup at our house and served in music and sound at church. I was loving the Kalgoorlie spring weather and Phill had the air conditioning on all night every night!

    How much has changed in a year.
