    If you start to grow up too fast sister I will burst the aging balloon for you if you promise to do the same for me.

    Your empty beach is magnificent - and the spider web not far behind. Glorious, both of them.

    Ever since having the kid home, it feels like growing, to be alive, to learn, for a second time - enjoying every second of its time.

    A wonderful weekend for you!

    Adore the grammarian quote (because I teach English), but the last one has got to be the one to really hit the spot! Amazing how we look for complex reasons for living, but the answer is quite simple!

    Apologies that I haven't been by much lately! Writing heaps of school reports and marking exams! 2 more weeks to go!
