Growing and changing

This quote is something I've been thinking about so much lately. Time can be a parents worst enemy but right now its our best friend. I love that the kids are getting bigger, its getting easier for me. Theyre more self sufficient and damn are they fun! I remember all the awesome things i was lucky enough to experience as a child and im super excited to give that to my kids tenfold.

Its not only about them growing up, its about me too. I was nineteen when i fell pregnant with Seb, i look back now and i was so young! I wouldnt do groceries alone, i wouldnt take seb out by myself if i didnt have too, i was dependant on people, on james. Maybe its the FIFO marriage that has changed me, maybe its just what happens when you get older but im happy. Im happy to have solo outtings with both kids, grocery shopping alone is a dream come true and i feel accomplished when i get out of my comfort zone. I've realised again that i can have dreams for myself with my family always in mind and i can accomplish them.

Im back!

Its been months since ive been here, and ive been thinking about posting most days but you know, life and such.

The kids are getting so big which means we are busy! We are busy keeping them occupied and entertained, busy with kindy and play dates. When daddy's home we're off the grid spending all our time as a family or me at work and just doing things i cannot do while playing single mum.

Seb is almost in his third term of kindy and we're unsure if he'll do another year before starting prep, his teachers have advised me he's borderline ready but there is still two more terms. He lacks concentration which i see with him on the daily but maybe its me? Maybe im not ready to let him go off into the big world yet. Some days id be glad to see him go but then i tuck him in at night and want to keep him as he is for a little longer.

Daisy, there's too much to say about this wild girl. She's the most beautiful, funny crazy girl I've met. She knows what she wants but she always has. She's cheeky and imcredibly loving. She's learning so much and i love watching it, 21 months is an amazing age. Dais loves Seb more then anyone, he's the only one she'll kiss goodnight.

I'll be back more i swear, I'll make time.
