Stillness
The holiday’s continue around the house and at home everyone is simply being. A new game arrived, Theomachy, some card sleeves. We have had some lovely roast dinners as a combined effort and joked about past memories around the dinner table each night…but beyond that the house is quiet. In spite of this quiet the … Continue reading
Good Friday
Well that is almost the sum of holiday effort I put in. In all honesty holiday’s for us have become times of rest, we don’t visit, we don’t make plan’s, we don’t participate in event’s and we barely give air time to family demanding we visit or celebrate or traverse the state to join them. … Continue reading
Room Wreckers
Jac is a full scale room wrecker. She doesn’t stop at toppling chest of drawers and tearing down curtains she literally starts tearing through doors and plaster walls. Not this modern sheet plaster board no….the 50 year old thick genuine plaster walls. We used Magic 1-2-3 it is NOT a cure, but it does help, … Continue reading

We moved interstate in 2007 for 3 years prior to the move WE NEVER SAW OR HEARD from their grandparents, aunt or uncle EVEN BEFORE THE SPLIT! unless it … Continue reading
PHEW! She is on board!
It can be really hard knowing whether or not you are doing the right thing when you know something needs to be done to prepare….. And she has her own ideas and is likely going to take your head off if you try to prepare. But today WE HAD A BREAK THROUGH! She has agreed … Continue reading
Language barriers
One of the biggest things which challenged us in obtaining help for Jacqueline and even her sisters, was the barrier of language. For children they don’t have a developed vocabulary with which to express themselves and what they are feeling or experiencing….tummies hurt, head is funny, I fell and hurt my bum! Kiss it better! … Continue reading
