happy mother's day!
Happy Mother's Day to all those mothers (and mothers-to-be!) out there. On special day's like this I feel very far from home, and wish I could be back in Australia with my family, having bbq salmon on my brother's deck with a flock of king parrots in the tree above. But my thoughts are there, and with all of you today! I hope you take some time out to be good to yourself, and have a lovely one!

first days
As small children shuffle off for their first days of school this week (good luck little Inny! Aunty Tina is thinking of you!! xx), Kids Style File has recommended Ruby Makes a Friend as
"...the perfect book to read to a sibling who has bravely waved
goodbye to their older brother or sister for the day..."
That made me happy. But some news that will make you happy — they're also offering their readers 20% off everything (including Ruby!) in their lovely online store until March 31st. Check 'em out!
