ELSIE IS GROWING UP TOO FAST, SO I’M SLOWING DOWN

I CAN feel Elsie’s childhood slipping through my fingers. Really, I can. Those special moments, this special age she’s at, it’s all slipping through my fingers at an alarming rate. I’ve been hanging on, trying to keep up, doing my best to stop them all slipping through, but it’s been a struggle. And recently I’ve had a wake up call.

It’s one of my most favourite things to do. Sometimes if I’m feeling fancy and have got some time, I’ll drop and shoot with my snazzy SLR, but more often than not, I’ll snap a shot with my phone camera,

Elsie Creates A Treasure Box

My two year old daughter is crafty. And I don’t mean in the sneaky sense, but in the ‘loves to paint, colour, draw and stick as much as she can’ kind of sense. It’s a wonder to behold and I have to say, her ‘craftiness’ is definitely catching. There’s nothing I love more than sitting down with her and helping or watching her get into her creative zone. Toddlers are
