I begin to daydream...

17th September, 2012

I anticipate the first Spring egg before the children. The leaves begin to uncurl, the Sun teases me with a little warmth in its light, I begin to daydream about the possibilities in the year ahead.

And I know that it will soon be time.

I check every day or so.
Quietly, when the children aren't looking. Then when I'm sure it's close I encourage them to check.

And then...


The surprise!


And the delight. It's pure magic. 
Especially when big brother is at school & it's the first time you've found the egg alone.

The Queenscliff-Sorrento Ferry was celebrating 25 years. We spent the day travelling across the bay.
On board pirates handing out gold coins, mini golf & facepainting. Lunch at Queenscliff & icecream at Sorrento. A family outing ~ hi-five!

Jaspers first facepainting. *melt*
