My little Cash, you are almost 4 now, so you will certainly understand what Christmas is all about, the joy, the fun, the presents! And of course spending time with family and enjoying wonderful food together. We wish you could be with us my darling. This year is a bit different, as your Grandad Vince… Continue reading Merry Christmas 2019
This year has been a very log battle with my broken leg from 15.2.2019 in Bali not healing, needing a second surgery, a raging bone infection with a superbug (MRSA) and the IV Vancomycin treatment for weeks that almost killed me! Going from wheelchair, to walking frame, to elbow crutches then walking stick at only… Continue reading Reaching my Goal 2019!
Hard to imagine that you are not here to celebrate it with us, even thought this is now the 3rd year without you. Happy Birthday across the stars my baby boy, you would have been 34 today!
When Kyle was growing up he was always very active and into physical activities, he tried many different sports and hobbies over the years including footy, cricket, bodyboarding, karate, basket ball, BMX and even ballroom dancing! Some were passing phases and some were life long loves. Although there is a family history of Judo, in… Continue reading 2019 Grandies Sports!
After our visit to Pinneroo, my parents, daughter and I went to the Casino for lunch. Gambling is not really my thing, nor Christina’s, but Kyle always loved going there, and when he lived with me in Karrinyup he would often have his mates over for a few drinks before they set off for the… Continue reading Kyle loved the “Cas” (Casino)

As I walked in the… Continue reading Nanna & Grandad Jock visit Pinneroo

Mother’s Day is possibly one of the most difficult days for me – it’s always a bitter-sweet day. Whilst I am so blessed to be able to have a joyful time to spend with my family and grandchildren, the fact that two (Kyle and Cash) are not here with me is always very distressing and… Continue reading Mother’s Day 12 May 2019
Another Easter without Kyle or Cash. This year instead of Easter eggs we gave all the Grandies and Step Grandies warm winter PJs in Easter Themes! It kills me not to be able to give a set to Cash, he would look so cute!!! I also took a trip out to Pinneroo with some flowers… Continue reading Easter 21.4.2019
Well, it’s another special day (my 56th Birthday) without my family all together to celebrate as we normally would. I am truly grateful for the people in my life and the love and caring they give me and the amazing joy they bring – I could not have survived this without their love and support.… Continue reading YaYa’s Birthday 2019
