When I snapped this moment at the ridiculously early hour of 5am, I intended to write up a short post about how day light savings is playing havoc with Finn and Harper’s sleeping. Making the impossible possible; making our difficult sleepers, well, even more difficult. Then an hour or so later we received a call to say that Lachie’s much loved Nana had passed away overnight. What seemed important to me one hour ago, what I felt warranted a bit of a whinge, now didn’t seem to matter.
Throughout this sad day, this moment reinforced why I am completing this project. Things change. Circumstances shift and lives can be altered within the short space of a week or even as today highlighted, within a day.
I am dedicated to seeing this commitment through. To look back apon 366 days and see the small stuff, the routines that seem so ordinary while you are walking through them day by day, and recognise that it really was big stuff after all. These moments, these days changed me, changed us. Four months in I can already see this loud and clear.
