I take hundreds of photos every month, and most of them don’t get shared with anyone, let alone online. And yet the moments in time that those photos capture are just as important a part of our story as the other images that I do choose to share. I created this blog as a way…
May has been the most gorgeous month! It’s my favourite month of the year (along with September).

Back in October, which seems forever ago now, we had to choose which three high schools we wanted to put down on Ella’s application for placement this coming September. Firstly, I still can’t quite believe that my baby, the one who made me a mother, is going to high school in less than six months…
I’ve been wrestling with writing this post for six weeks now. Six weeks ago, on 7th February 2018, it was the third anniversary of my Dad’s death. As is natural, I thought about Dad a lot around that date, and felt a whole mixture of feelings that I’m only just beginning to untangle, which is…
