More sleeping

It's becoming a common thing in the morning for Nick to wake up and wander into Daniel's room to climb in bed with him or play in his room while he is [of course] still sleeping. But to do it quietly at bedtime without us hearing? Good effort Nick. This is what I found at 9pm when I turned off Daniel's light after he fell asleep reading. Made me want to snuggle in too! 

Don't worry, I didn't.

And one morning last week Daniel said Nick came and stood by his bed, waking him up saying, "I have to get in your bed Daniel." I just told Daniel that he didn't have to let him get in if he didn't want to, to which Daniel said, "Oh Mum, I'm not going to say no to him." Good onya big brother, if you don't mind my Aussie slang... 

How can this be???

Completely and utterly asleep.

I think my mom might say like mother like daughter, not sure... ;)

Superwoman

I really do not strive to be this particular image of a woman...

...but it's a striking image nonetheless...

...and a great article about perfectionism, high standards, what it is I am striving for, and whether or not it's valuable to me or predetermined by others to be valuable.

Personally, dot point 3 and 5 are ones I relate to...

That's all. :)

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad! 

Thank you for your wonderful example and support all these years.

Snow Yeah

It's been pretty cold here. The mountain has had snow for weeks and a student-free day at school meant we had no excuse not to go!

Snowball fights...
