Outside Madeleine & Michael’s house in Newcastle having a summer treat. In the photo on the left, Peach reminds me of a photo I’ve saw years ago of my mother, so I am particularly fond of this set. Perhaps the vintage edit (by Jess) helps, either way, it’s nice to remember that my mum was once a little cheeky toddler too.

“And in her hand she clasped a shell, a tiny beating heart.
The waves they lapped, they flowed, they turned, pulling it apart.
It is my treasure, my secret friend, I will keep it close to me.
And safe in my pocket, there it will sit, reminding me of the sea.”

I suspect this is how my memories shall find me in years to come, a hazy idyllic version of my youth.

Question: Who is the luckiest girl alive? Answer: Me
For our third wedding anniversary my beloved surprised us with a trip to the town I grew up in. A week to show him the places of all my childhood tales, to catch up with school friends and enjoy each other and the babies. An early morning flight and we arrived in Newcastle, welcomed by a beautiful downfall of summer rain. Peach was mildly unimpressed by it all, which is surprising since this photo was taken right after Errol packed her into the luggage trolly like the Tetris master he is – it blew my socks off!

Out shopping with her best friend, Scarlet. We’ve been spending a lot of time with Scarlets family lately (in fact, they’re moving in with us next month!) and it is SO lovely to have another little girl around for Priya to play with. I listen to them talking, bossing, discussing and I can’t help but smile “No, go ober dere, I in dis shop, you buy my puppy Scarlet, you gib me da money”.
