Mamatograpy 2013 Week 13: Parting Is Such Sweet Sorrow


It’s a week of saying goodbyes  and while I’ve always taken being sad to leave somewhere as a good sign of your time there having been well spent, this time I’m finding it exquisitely hard.

Mamatography 2013 Week 12: Celebrations!


It’s been a week of holding on, and letting go. We can all feel our time here is drawing to close, but there’s some celebrating to do first!

Mamatography Week 11: All About Daddy


My husband, Martin, arrived in Australia this week for three weeks, and then we’ll go back to England with him. I’m so grateful that he came out, as I must admit that the burden of single parenting was getting to me. I am so tired, bone tired, and I am looking forward to some equilibrium…

Mamatography 2013 Week 10: Fairies, Friends And Bubbles


Are you tired of hearing me say how we’re in a weird kind of limbo yet? Well, we are. Next week (to these pictures) Daddy arrives. That’s about all there is to say about the here and now.

Mamatography 2013 Week 9: Sugar And Spice And All Things Nice


Some beautiful moments this week. Maybe not the best photos, but good moments and good memories. Day 52/365 – Out for a walk

Mamatography Week 8: A Lot Of Not Much


It’s been a pretty quiet week Down Under. It seems I only took my camera out four days of the week, even, but fortunately had a few more snaps on my phone. I can’t wait till I get my new phone in about six weeks – definitely going for something with a better camera!

Mamatography Week 7: Food, Fairies And New Life


I can’t really think of a way to capture our week in just a sentence or two. I am grateful that despite some terrible news that has hit our friendship circles this week, we were able to see new life this week too. Beautiful mercies.

Mamatography 2013: Week 6 – Life Goes On


We’re still in this infernal limbo. At least we have a date now for Dddy to come and visit… we can’t wait! Now we’re just counting down the days, spending as much time wint my mum as we can between everything and getting on with life.

Mamatography Week 5: Grandparents Galore


We’ve been blessed this week. Last week we were worried my mother might never leave the hospital, and this week, now they’ve moved into the house with us, the girls have been getting some really special one on one time with them. We’ve also been blessed because my mom has made a remarkable recovery, at…

Mamatography 2013: Week 4 – These Days


Day 17 – Sweet Relief My mother is still in the hospital, and we spend most of our days somehow on our way to, at, or on our way from the hospital. It’s amazing how a day can just be swallowed up. After a few days of this, I decided the girls needed to get…


Day 17 – Sweet Relief

My mother is still in the hospital, and we spend most of our days somehow on our way to, at, or on our way from the hospital. It’s amazing how a day can just be swallowed up. After a few days of this, I decided the girls needed to get out and have fun, so we went to a water playpark in the city. It’s awesome when you find things like this, and they are free too!
