A Mother of One

Ahh, the good ol' Mozart Place days... The year was 2004, Tim and I were still newly weds, sort of. I wanted four children at this stage, and I remember dad saying if we took these three off their hands we'd only need to have one.
When you have your first child it can be a lot more difficult than you first antisipate. Of course, looking back, one is infinately easier than three...

I was feeling rather nostalgic today, and in light of the upcoming mothers day, I thought I'd look back on first becoming a mother.


Monto April 2006

We moved to Queensland to spend some time with my famliy and also to see a little more of Australia before we would have more children and travelling would become more difficult.

One of those 'almost-all-of-the-family' pictures




I love this photo! Good times

It was 40 degrees Celsius on this day, as well as many others. The pool felt like it was heated.



Golden Beach October 2006
This was our front yard for 6 months. I know it looks perfect, but there is a down side to almost everything i think. We were happy to have lived here, but happy to move on as well.

Jai's First hair cut at 19 months old

I think Jai was meant to be the second child born into the family because he is such a "people person". He would get so bored being by himself. Thats why I love that he got to grow up a little with Pani, Orrin and Tia. Sorry about the bite marks guys.





No, he isn't 2 years old in this photo, he's just cheeky. Thanks for my tough introduction to motherhood Jai, you have made me stronger than I could have imagined.I love you always, mum Big Kiss Little Kiss Hug Hug Kiss Kiss
