Nina


Full of life and happiness, you would never guess she has middle ear infection. I just love her.

My beautiful daughter


Arden starts to draw


Isn't this the most gorgeous self portrait?

Ouma


Ouma got drawn next... Pretty good for a not yet 3 year old! 

A heart


Arden drew this heart all by himself and then after i drew one next to his, to show him how good his was...

A leaf


Sad Mamma


Yes, suppose i was sad today, looking after 2 sick kids, but these drawings totally cheered me up.

Jellyfish


I must add, these drawings were done with no prompting or ideas of what to draw.

Rainbow


While he drew the purple he said, 'violet', something i told him once a few weeks ago. I'm totally enamoured with these drawings.

An aeroplane


Hope you can see it, zooming toward you!

Dinosaur


This may not look like more than a bunch of squiggles, but to the trained eye, it is a carefully drawn dinosaur- with a head, long neck, legs and a tail...

The 'green giant' strikes


Can't turn my back for a second!

Greenpoint Park


Wintery Sunday afternoon at Greenpoint Park.

Theresa's birthday


Made aunty T a carrot, pineapple and almond cake, covered in pink icing, silver balls and sparkly things...then dropped it as i was unloading the kids and their mountains of stuff out the car with one hand...the cake landed with a splat on the road and shattered into a million pieces and the cake tin and lid went rolling away in different directions, while i watched in disbelief... half laughing, half crying! We scooped up the mountain of rubble and covered it with candles. Was a lovely party.
