Operation ‘Father’s Day’
Posted on September 5, 2016 Leave a Comment
Coming in tired after a long day at work he almost missed Son #2 coming in behind him. We laughed about how far son had walked to be here (4hr car ride but no car in sight). My darling dearest took it all at face value and suspected nothing more. We grinned. Putting down his heavy […]
Life Class

That you should do Life Classes is something you hear everywhere among those who like to paint. I used to do them way back when, but I got REALLY sick of looking at everyone’s bits and pieces. I mean, is that really life? I might make a quick dash from the shower when the kids […]
A Spanner In The Works

A long day done and wanting to relax, my darling dearest wearily plodded up the stairs to start the relax process by changing into comfy clothes. He works long and hard and I really like to see him chill out in the evenings. However, what greeted him upstairs spurred him into lightening action, bounding down the […]
Roast Dinner AGAIN!
Posted on March 8, 2016 Leave a Comment
Senior moments? Forgetful? Doing too many things at once? Who knows…but it wasn’t till after the post had gone up that I realised there was no artwork attached. All the effort those wonderful kids had gone to cooking us roast dinners, and I had not even included the very grateful empty plate with knife and fork […]

They have all moved out of home and into their new abodes. Although I love this nest now clean and quiet, I miss their noise and … no! I don’t miss their mess!!! I wanted to see their new homes. This Mama bird was curious as to how they were doing. So the Papa bird […]
Bonded

Fulfilling my promise to draw them as a baby, I was not at all surprised that he chose this photo. Yes, these two have been bonded since the day they met…my darling dearest and son number one. He’s taller than his daddy now, but still proudly following in his footsteps. Embarking on the same career […]
Game On!

The suggestion was made and everyone was up and ready. “Wanna have a round?” Daughter laughing all fun and happy. Son quietly taking us all on. Grandma sitting on the sidelines watching the play while wearing a smile. Granddad bouncing light and nimble at the ready. And that darling dearest of mine in his element enjoying […]
Touches of Rosemary

When your 24 year old son offers to cook you a roast, you accept. All afternoon we had been smelling those scrumptious odours…tantalizing! He even made the gravy himself using all the juices from the bottom of the pan…Mama taught him good! The call went out that dinner was ready and we were all scurrying […]
Daddy’s Hat

Sitting on my boss’s desk was a photo of his son wearing Daddy’s hat. All those curls framing such a cute smile was a winner, don’t you agree? It’s been a few years since I did this one, but it never seems to loose it ‘s appeal.
Just One Tooth
Posted on March 19, 2015 2 Comments
The tall young man who just went through pain and swelling of face to get rid of wisdom teeth, once had just one tooth. Memories are so precious. 19 years of loving and the memory forgets the details of yesteryear. Grateful for photos that remind and tell us again of good things already past.
