PASSPORTS, VISAS, WILLS AND TEARS

ONE MORE SLEEP.ARGHHH

greetings from cottage point as we share ourselves around before the departing... jon has us setting off to last minute visiting with friends while I contemplate my death and how i'd like to be desposed of.

much to my digust we have done our wills today and while we sat discussing who would look after our children and what we would give to whom... we realised, quite frankly, and in a ball of hysterics, we actually have nothing to give... and so we begin our journey to enlightenment.


we spent last night out at BLACKTOWN with my nana and pop (with an impromtu visit with my cousin HEATH, AMANDA, ZIG ZIG AND LILLYBELLE )and had a great night and welcomed catch up. In the morning I received a phone call from my cousin HOLLIE wishing us well and safe travels when it suddenly hit me... that we were indeed going and with the exception of picking up the visas and passports, we had completed all the neccessary tasks before our journey begins......i suddenly began to weep.

We have not been able to have catch ups with all our beloveds' before heading off in one short sleep, while our minds have been consumed with getting things sent and collected, cleaned and dissected; we have forgotten the most important and have neglected those CLOSE TO OUR HEARTS.

WE LOVE YOU DEARLY AND WILL MISS YOU UNFATHOMABLY!!

AND SO, WITH A STIFF UPPER LIP......love, love, love

from the boys and banksia

P.S Please remember to sign your name at the end of the comment.... otherwise we can't tell whose making us cry!!
