I find it hard to do anything these days. Apart from the most urgent tasks, like feeding and changing and disciplining the offspring. The rest of the time, I dither between housework, taking photos, sewing, painting, craft projects, studying, playing and reading with the kids, drawing, blogging, writing. No matter what I do, I feel… Continue reading Today I Did Nothing
Train from London to Edinburgh. The view from our accommodation, the Castle Rock Hostel, in Edinburgh’s Old Town. Every street and alley is photogenic in the old town!

I had so much fun preparing and celebrating his first birthday, and I can’t wait to celebrate… Continue reading Sebastian Turns One
