Hanging By a Moment

Like most siblings, my two oldest fight like cats and dogs. They can spit like the crankiest cats and bite like the snappiest of dogs. They niggle, they tease, they boss and they annoy.

And yet, this afternoon we were taking the dogs for a run at the beach. On the long trek back from the low tide line, Caitie and Aiden walked, hand in hand, heads together, talking quietly the whole way. They were in their own little world and it was magic to see.

My internal mummy camera took a picture and I will remember that moment for a long time.

Cheers,

Feelin' the Lurv.

Like all kids, mine say the darndest things at the darndest times. Caitie, at 11, was walking along the other day and absently rubbing her chest. I was concerned and asked her what was wrong. To which she replied "Aww, I've got a boob comin' in."

I wet myself.....

And Conor was in the pool with me the other day. I have Carpa; Tunnel Syndrome in both my hands and have cortisone injections to keep the symptoms manageable. I told him he had to be gentle with me because the injections weren't working and my hands were really sore. He gazed lovingly into my eyes and said, softly and quietly, "Suck it up princess!"

I heart him, I really do!


Cheers,
