family visit!



My cousin, her 2 children, my Aunt and Grandma came over for a visit this morning. It was so great to see everyone. The kids had so much fun together!

before I forget...


I need to mention that for the first time EVER a stranger left a cranky, anonymous comment on one of my posts. I have to say that I was very shocked as the post was meant to be uplifting to my family and friends that read the blog. Unfortunately that post was lost in the "switch over" but I would like to say to whoever left it that I'm sorry if that parenting post struck a nerve with you but it did exactly what it was intended to do and that is make the people in my life feel good. I would never post anything to purposely hurt someone and the people that know me know that to be true. You mentioned in your comment that you were a "struggling" parent. Maybe you need to find someone to talk to? If anyone knows anything about struggling it was me but I found that the best thing for me was to keep busy and get out of the house as much as possible. Hope this helps :)
Oh, by the way, this pics was taken in my back garden today. I think Spring is on it's way - Yippee!!

yesterday



M took the boys out for some fresh air yesterday while I was at work. They were also able to try some pics with the new camera before it started raining.

New Year, New camera, New blog.

I'm in the process of changing my blog around a bit. I was getting very tired of the bright green template and also I want to be a bit more careful about using names and places for security reasons. Unfortunately, I've lost a few posts and all of my template changes but that's o.k. I wanted to start fresh anyway. It just may take me a few days to add the template changes and to start posting again.
