Day 24- A letter to your parents

Dear Mum and Dad,

Thank you so much for providing me with such wonderful opportunities from such a young age. I understand how blessed I am to have been able to have you both in my life and I am grateful.

These opportunities have inspired me to explore my options in life and also seek out new ways to live a fulfilled life. I have discovered my goal of being an artist because of your encouragement to follow my dreams and having the courage to do anything I choose.

I want to thank you for the guidance you provided me throughout my life. I am glad that you taught me how to work hard and treat people with kindness and love. They serve me well in life and I know that Maddy will have the same encouragement to be the same. Because of what you taught me, I know how to treat others well and what to expect from others.

Thank you again for helping me.

Love,
Dee x x

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

Shaughan took Maddy down to the market so I got to spend sometime in my studio painting. I was bummed out cause I had left my small brush in the water and it was wrecked, I need to go and get another number 0 brush today.


I spent many hours in the garden yesterday, it was good getting a sweat on and I'm not even sore today! Tony would be proud.

Good-Bye Summer Family Ritual

For the past week I have been feeling the shift of seasons from summer into autumn. This has motivated me to c lean out closets, freshening up our home, make this summer photo collage, and created a family ritual. I find ritual really powerful it allows you the time to honour what has come before, say goodbye, and create intentions for what will come next. I've been poking around the internet and have found interesting articles on family summer rituals. Here are some of the suggestions I have read… Summertime is full of outdoor pursuits, so adding the outdoors into your ritual fits perfectly. Preserve summer fruits for the chilly months ahead. Engage in cooking or baking with summer ingredients. Shared a meal of seasonal food. Press summer flowers or herbs in books. Create a memory book of the past summer with photographs, ticket stubs, memorabilia, quotes, family jokes, poem, or anything else that reminds the family of fun times. Create a summer nature journal, detailing a
