My Chosen Family
Brother-in-law, mother-in-law, husband. My chosen family. Think I made a great choice. Grateful to the universe for making it happen.
I Used to Think
I used to think getting married and having kids was lame, but now I know that nothing matters more than family, and there’s nothing more beautiful than love. Without love, life would be pointless, and if you don’t have family, what have you got.
Baby Girl Loves
Baby girl loves herself some snow. She loves swimming too, like oh my god, I’ll post some beautiful pictures and video of all that tomorrow.
Early Sunny Mornings
Early sunny mornings in the park with my girls it’s my favourite way to start the day
Studio Time With Daddy
Asha loves to hang out in the studio with daddy pushing pads banging buttons turning knobs she could do it for hours at least until Daisy comes around
Life is Very Nice
When your family are your friends and your friends are family life is very nice
Just Nice to Know
Missing my angel husband, I can’t wait to see him again, even though when he’s home he spends like 99% of his time holed up in the studio, so I never see him anyway, but it’s just nice to know he’s in there. I used to think people who got married and had kids were lame, but now I know that nothing matters more than family, and there’s nothing more majestic than love.
Toddler Speak
Toddler speak is as much a challenging and complex language as any to learn, the going is rather bristly and tough for a while, both for the toddler and the adult, in efforts to communicate and be understood. There is mystery and frustration felt by all parties, but the sense of triumph and reprieve when a riddle is solved is all rejoicing and exultation. That AHA moment is glorious beyond compare. So far with Asha this is what we’ve got: Barbie dolls are dogs. Stuck is syuck. Light is white. iPhone is eye bone. This one is swan. This way is sway. Orange juice is oh jin. Thank you is tanks daddy. Dress is yes. Black is bwack. Chicken is kitchen. Getting this far provides joy and succour for all involved. Let me tell you, raising a child, watching them learn, and teaching them stuff, is fascinating, exasperating, poignant and fun.
You Make the Difference
All the darkness in this world can’t hold a candle to you Asha we love you so much thank you for being our baby girl. The quality of your sweetness and the strength of your light can’t be challenged. You make the difference.
We Were All Wondering
When I was 36 weeks pregnant with Asha and we were all wondering how many tentacles the baby would have
More Than True
Fairytales are more than true not because they tell us that dragons exist but because they tell us that dragons can be defeated
Making Wishes
Making wishes with my sweet angel who doesn’t yet know that she was my wish the best wish I could ever make and the best wish that could ever come true
As Simple As This
Hanging out in the backyard with the family. Much happiness can be found in something as simple as this. Life is beautiful.
