2013 has not been the easiest year so far, for a whole lot of reasons. A tragedy close to us, one child starting school, another Kindy, and all except baby (bless her) have been needing extra attention. I am slowly accepting that our children, particularly our boys right now, might be orchids rather than dandelions. I have delayed going back to my job, which I'm sure was the right decision, but at times I'm really missing it. So it's my work this year to be a parent and a friend, to notice all the wonderful little moments of which there are still plenty, and to find little ways to nurture myself so I can be there for my loved ones.
A long-winded excuse for starting a new knitting project maybe?
