Hey Michelle, I'm really good today (makes a nice change!) thanks for asking!

Spent a lovely day in the garden with my little DD mainly just weeding, watering and tidying up (and her making a mess playing in the bird bath and making mud pies...three wardrobe changes later!!) after the wind on Saturday - we live really close to the old ADI site (which is basically just a huge lot of vacant government land, where the emus and kangaroos run free!) and there are heaps of HUGE gum trees all around us. There were broken branches, leaves and bark everywhere!

Was another one of those days where I am eternally grateful that I only have to work 2 days a week. I've been thinking a lot lately that if I never get to share another little life then at least I've been lucky enough to spend as much time as I do with the gorgeous little creature that I do have. I don't want to miss a moment in this child's life. She truly is my one joy (as is my DH of course!!).

Maybe that's my lesson in all of this - be truly grateful and cherish that which I do have. There has to be a lesson in there somewhere amongst all the pain. That's what I tell myself to make it bearable anyway....

Hope you are well. I keep all of us in my prayers and thoughts and hope that there is some joy for us this month.
