…until my baby goes off to big school. It doesn't seem like 6 years since we moved down here to Hobart and I went to the Doctor with a stomach complaint… what a surprise we received. (I know, you’d think at 37 I’d know how it works!) but Matilda blessed our lives soon after. She wasn't part of our life’s plans, nor Hugs ‘n Kisses plans but she has changed our lives for the better. The memory of her birth and the 100’s of memories made together since are something we all treasure. She has sat beside me here in the studio for 5 years keeping me company, drawing, chatting, sharing and inspiring and generally slowing me down but I wouldn't have had it any other way.

Tomorrow she heads off to prep and is very excited…my middle baby starts high school and my biggest baby enters her final year of High school. We have had a quiet relaxing holiday making a few more memories.

I think I will be lonely……
