Another photoy post



My head is the clouds at the moment, and I'm finding it hard to put a coherent thought down in writing! Lots has been going on in the treehugging household, I picked Indigo up from school last week and she came bounding to the gate saying "I emptied my locker, I said my goodbyes, today was my last day!" So I can add homeschooling Mama to my repertoire! It's been a long time coming and I'm glad we've reached a conclusion, school dramas do my head in, and Indigo is going to be a great homeschooler, she's driven to learn which gets a bit squashed at school, even though their school is awesome (I should know, I went there growing up!) she's just not suited to the school environment. So a little sad, but mostly excited about this new phase of our journey. As well as that my niece is coming to stay! We haven't seen her for 3 1/2 years and she's just turned 11, so we're pretty excited! It's just a quick visit, a night or two, but we've been waiting for her to come down here for so long, I can't wait to give her a huge hug! And she and Indigo have already planned what they're going to do on their sleepover.

look what I have!


Sorry for the lack of posts, will be brief as I have a feverish 2 year old asleep on my shoulder. I'm pretty lucky that she hardly ever gets sick, I would not want to deal with green boogers more than once every second year!

I GOT A NEW CAMERA!!! NO MORE FUZZIES!! Some clear pics for blogland:

Rainbow and Crystal at a party with their cousins
Rainbow climbing high in a tree, trying to get up to where her sisters are
Indigo and Crystal tree climbing.

I've realised most of my awesome photos I need to rotate, and I can't do it on the program I'm using! Will have to edit them and put them up next time!

Um, no, I don't like it!


Um, nice threads Indigo! Ugh, I have to say animal print and lime green are two of my most despised things in life. Truely. And the top doesn't do it for me either. But Indigo has a keen sense of fashion - well her own brand of fashion - and bought this outfit with her own money. While I watched on thinking hmm, wonder if allowing my daughter to commit crimes of fashion falls anywhere under child abuse laws? But I'm trying to suck it up and let her form her own identity, which in her words is "Wild, hippy, mismatched and individual" well she's certainly done that. Now to make sure that I'm always at least 3 meters behind her in public so no one clicks on that she's with me...
