Thankful Thursday - Fathers!
I never had a great, or even good relationship with my father until I myself became a mother. Between the ages of 13-16 I was placed into over 25 different foster homes most of which were single mother environments. It wasn't until I was living with a good hearted Christian family that I realised the importance of a Dad within the family and since then I had found Jesus and my heavenly Father. Earlier this year I got married, something...

My 10 Essentials
Kate over at The Tales Of Me after sharing her 10 essentials, mentioned that I share mine!
Here they are Kate..
1. Fresh Water - Everytime I turn the tap on in my home, I remember how lucky I am.
2. Jesus - I don't know how I ever lived a day without being thankful for Gods precious gift.
3. People - The diversity of people is somewhat humbling to a girl like me.
4. Freedom - Does this ever enter you mind?
5. Sunny Days -...
A Lunchbox Love Note..
With school photo's scheduled to be taken today at Jie's school, it was only too appropriate to send Jie to school with a fresh cheese sandwich. His normal requests these days are honey or peanut butter ..but I think I'll get away with it being accompanied with a cheeky note!

Embrce The Camera: After Dark
This life never stops giving..
Delightful..
Cheerful..
Crazy Times..
Last night while in the bath Nevaeh comes in bare naked and jumps in..
"I want to do your hair Mummy, look up!"
she says with a cup of water in hand
I had never had a bath with her before but I had no say in the matter.
It reminded me how much my kids are exactly like me..
Pushing boundries for that extra bit of fun!!
Here is us embracing the camera...

One time, stop everything to help someone else..
Last Saturday, while planning a {family impact day} of cleaning we received a text message from family friends asking if we could baby sit two littlies. Without thinking at all I accepted. Another massage came saying that they were in search of others to look after the other 4. I said not to stress, that I could have them all. I ended up baby sitting 5 of them plus bringing Jie too equaling 6.
Being in another persons...

Jie's School Walk-a-thon
Jie showing me a prize he won while walking.

Conner, Chili, Cody and Jie.
Jie lining up with some of his class mates after the walk-a-thon.
The weather was horrid so the kids ran to keep warm.
Jie completed 9 laps in 30 minutes.
All money raised is going towards class room...

Parmesan Pastry
Are your kids sick of having the same old food in they're lunchbox each week?
Do you remember having that boring old sandwich week in and week out?
A piece of fruit and a bag of chips just not fun anymore?..
Go out of your way for your kids!!
At 8 o'clock yesterday morning I made some simple parmesan pastry for my little man to take to school with him. At his school, Tuesday is fruit day so his lnchbox is usually packed with...

Top 100 in Australia!
This week Jie's hard work and enthusiasm has achieved him
a ranking in the Mathletics Hall of Fame!
His love for maths came natural to him when he started school this year
with his mid year report card showing him at a year 1 level.
I love the concept of the hall of fame as it has really encouraged him.
Not only did he rank 61 this week, but he was the only one of his school in the top one hundred!

little guys can do big things too..
He's big but God's bigger
And when I think of Him, that's when I figure

Jie: "I made you brekky Vae-Vae, three wheatbix because your three!"
Nevaeh: "Where's my spoon then?"
Jie: "Here, have mine, I can get another one"
Nevaeh "Thank-you Jie-Jie"
Jie: "That's okay!"
Nevaeh: "No, your welcome!"
Mum: "Jie, when you were little, after I said thank you, you would always say "That's all welcome." it was so cute that Uncle Al used to say it too."
Jie: "Thats because we have the same life"
Nevaeh: "What's...

Blogging on the go..
So, here I am blogging from the comfort of my couch! No laptop, no connecting sd cards or cameras into the computer, no opening a million windows to edit photos, download photos or save and upload photos.. I finally got myself a smart phone and joined the 21st century!!
I'm so excited to be blogging this morning using an android app called Blogaway. I can do pretty much anything I would normally do on my laptop using my new Sony Ericsson...
