‘Ello from a couple of Blueys and a Mama Kangaroo! Or maybe I’m Bluey’s dad… that works too. He’s my dadspiration. Either way, we kept it heaps Australian this year 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
This wraps up one pretty loaded month! It began with a baby shower, ended with a virtual baby shower-birthday party-Halloween filled weekend, and also included @deanna.suzanna’s birthday, a @plantwpurpose gala, and my half marathon.
This weekend was such a bizarre blend of heavy and light, and also assembling nursery furniture, keeping tabs on a climate conference all the way in Scotland, and making a fish cracker cake.
While Rhys turned two, it also hit me that his childhood isn’t just an 18-year lump sum of Rhys, but constantly saying bye to a younger version and meeting a new older version and it’s always bittersweet. I also spent the day before at a friend’s memorial service, and though it should’ve been heavy, it was also overwhelmingly joyful- bringing together a community she cultivated.
What a high-contrast reminder to bask in the sunlight of each day and to look at the stars a little bit before bed, too.
From here on out, we have no further plans. We don’t even have the ability to make plans, other than to be ready for these twins the moment they decide it’s show time.
The ride moves fast, especially so some months, but it’s hard to do better than spending your days doing stuff that matters with people you love.
