I've been doing so much driving lately, I've driven the hour and a bit trip to brisbane and back 3 times in the last week plus a drive too and from my mums house 30 minutes away twice. With a toddler this is a big deal, he's been such a champ, absolutely no whining!
As I drive through the coast streets it reminds me so much of my teen years. Driving past the house my dad and I lived in when I was 16 where I lived in the garage and had small parties every other weekend, my school where I walked across the oval to the bus morning and afternoon. The bus stops I used to wait at to see friends, go to school, go to the shops, the beach and everything else.
It makes me so happy to know Seb will, as far as now is concerned, grow up here and hopefully have so many great memories as I do.
The trip to Brisbane is a boring view for the most part but James and I did the drive more then 50 times in our early dating days. He used to point out every dirt bike jump on the side of the high way, we listened to great music and talk. Every time we drive out of Brisbane city, he points out the bicycle shop he purchased his bike he used to double me on.
Things have changed so much in the last 8 or so years but I feel incredibly lucky to have all the great memories I do.
