Today i thought i would take you along on my morning through photos. I was up early before the girls today(and trust me..that's early!) so that i could get some seedlings planted into the garden, more seeds planted into trays to fill the gaps in a few weeks and a bit of weeding. It's a lovely time of the day to just reflect, listen to the birds, breathe in the morning air and enjoy the beauty around me. I felt so alive after my hour in the garden this morning…and really the only time i can get out there at moment as too hot in the middle of the day now when girls are napping.
Join me for a wander around the garden…….
I got a bit snap happy this morning but i think best i stop there! I'll leave you with a photo of TODAY'S HAPPY MOMENT which is the fun the girls and i had this morning with spaghetti…i'll be posting about this textural play activity and oral food aversion tomorrow.
You might also like to stop by Amanda's site to support her Notebook magazine campaign if you were a reader of that Australian mag…i know i certainly was and would love to see it back on the stands…..one of the few mags i found worth the cost.
Have a great day all!

Jode your garden looks lovely and I love those stone steps. I agree, it is nice to use natural materials that you have around you. I am envious of your Jacaranda tree. We have a small one that I planted in Autumn. I hope it looks like your’s one day. xxoo

Another thing Jode. Have you checked out this blog: http://www.soulemama.com/soulemama/
I read it regularly and wish I could have when my boys were little. Just don’t try to keep up with her though. i don’t know where this Amanda gets her energy from. Amanda has written somewhere that her blog focuses on the positive things in her day. She says that she does have the yucky bits too, but she chooses not to write about them. xxoo

Hi MamaM…thanks for stopping by. Your jacaranda will be flowering before you know it..i was really suprised at how quickly this one grew and began to flower. When we moved here a few years ago it was quite small but grown to this size already so hang in there!I have read soulemamas blog, it is indeed a good read although i can’t keep up with all her comments!
I like the focus on the positive things in one’s day, i try to do that most days although a challenge on some days to be sure!!
Do you have a blog…i couldn’t see one on your profile but would love to read it if you do!
Jode xx

Hi Jode, your garden is looking very good. You can always tell the time of year when you see the jacarandas are in flower, can’t you.
I can’t find an email to write to you. Could you drop me a line when you have some time? [email protected] Thanks love.
