On Saturday night, both my young’uns were invited to a disco party for an 11 year old friend. Juniper had a grand ol’ time to very loud music, bad acoustics in the boy scout hall, flashing lights, a smoke machine and flickering necklaces. My youngest wanted to have a good time but I think she was [...]

A couple of days ago I posted a mystery photo with the title Guess What I did on Saturday? For today’s Weekend Snapshot, I can reveal to all who didn’t peek at my flickr stream my Saturday activity: The girls and I popped through the automatic car wash. I know, that sounds really exciting. Willow was having [...] A couple of weeks ago, I got to play Mr Mom. That was a very enlightening experience. It taught me to admire, really admire, single Mothers (and Dads too). I don’t know how they do it. On my weekend as Mr Mom we went into the city and had a stop at the park in Birrarung Marr, [...] Well, I’m on the home stretch now. My Mr Mum stint is almost over. One more day to go and my better half returns from New Zealand. The kids are excited and I will be very relieved. I had lots of good intentions but, as I reflect over the past week I realised that I have not [...] Hello, Mr Mum here. The gals got up first thing this Saturday morning and wanted to go to the aquarium. So I made them breakfast got the little wyld one dressed and then waited and waited some more for the older, much more vain one to finish getting ready. We went by train into the city [...] In yesterday’s post, I mentioned my daughter and her room. About a year ago I offered to paint her room for her. Being the very creative and ecofriendly kiddo she is, she asked me to paint a forest on her walls. I had no idea how one would go about painting a forest on walls. I [...] My daughter Juniper believs she’s a surfie chick. She’s had me redecorate her room with a beach theme. I’ve even had to add to her wall mural so that it looks more ‘beachy’. I decided to do a series of macro shots on some of her ocean critter collection. Here’s a brief slideshow of what I’ve [...] It was cold on Sunday but both my gals wanted to get outside and my wife was keen to have them out of her hair for a little while so she could get some work done. We decided to take our dog Mojo out for a walk. Willow decided she needed to take her own ‘dog’ [...] My daughter reacting to my impersonation of her dancing and singing with her ipod. “Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Appreciate your friends. Continue to learn. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.” Mary Anne [...] Over the weekend my wife and our two kiddos attended The Long Walk in Melbourne. The Long Walk celebrated the positive achievements of our Indigenous communities. It was a time of sharing and celebrating. Like many modern Australian’s we are a ‘mixed’ race family. The Long Walk was a wonderful event to role model to our [...] |
