This one isn't an iphone shot, it's one of my brother's pictures but I think it fits the weekly photo challenge theme of "future tense" perfectly. Are we looking at a future world surfing champ? What lies ahead for this little man? The future is bright. … [Read more...]
Digital Parents Conference 2013
I just spent two days in a castle with chandeliers dripping from the ceiling. Prince Charming wasn't in attendance, although there was a Daddy Blogger who had ripped his shirt off by the end of proceedings, a brave thing to do in a room full of women! Here's some of what I learnt. Slow blogging could be an emerging trend. Longer but fewer … [Read more...]

Harlem Shaking and Bellingen Boots
It takes a special kind of crazy to book yourself into two conferences, back-to-back over five days, 412 kilometres apart. Then as if it's not difficult enough, you invite the family to accompany you to one of those conferences. I've just spent five days listening to an assortment of creative people talk about their experiences in both … [Read more...]
So I Had To Write A Letter To My Daughter
Dear Hippie Child It's very late at night but I'm still up because the school has given me homework and I'm in trouble because I haven't got it done. They wrote to us asking us to write a letter for you to receive on camp telling you why we love you, your best attributes and what we hope for your future.

What I’m Reading This Week
Well I've made it to Sydney! I left in the dark at 4.30am - and managed to waltz into the Curzon Hall at 9.30am - not a bad effort considering that involved almost an hour of standstill Sydney traffic - how do you people ever get anywhere? The Digital Parent's Conference is proving to be a mindfest of information and an overload of emotion - … [Read more...]
So I Decide To Go To A Conference
You know you are getting old when you put your back out trying on a new pair of trousers. That's what I did yesterday as I did a desperate scramble to get some appropriate clothing to wear to a blogging conference. If this is sounding familiar it's because it is - remember the debacle of trying to find an outfit for the last blogging conference I … [Read more...]
Monday Morning Photo – Scatter
Hello one and all. What did you get up to on the weekend? We enjoyed afternoon tea with friends. I read Dawn French's new book Oh Dear Silvia which was very enjoyable. I watched Goddess at the movies. It was a bit light on but fun enough, Magda Szubanski did a great turn as the over-the-top advertising exec. The week ahead is a busy one I'm … [Read more...]
Weekly Photo Challenge – Lunchtime
I'm a woman who likes to lunch. After a decade at home with the children where my lunchtime consisted of crustless vegemite sandwiches accompanied by in-depth conversation on bowel movements, farts and bananas in pyjamas I was a sucker for any invite to the nearest cafe, adult company and a glass of wine or two. On my return to work I enjoyed … [Read more...]
Educating The Child – The Montessori Years
It was a simple query put out on Facebook and Twitter by blogger Louisa Claire Have any of you sent your children to a Montessori Preschool? What can you tell me about it?? Suddenly, I was transported back some fourteen years to when I was a young mum desperately trying to make my mind up about the best option for my children. While I may have … [Read more...]
