Among the many hats I wear I am a photographer, midwife, girlfriend, daughter, sister and loyal friend but my most treasured role in this life is the gift of being a mother to Angus (11) and Freya (nearly 7). It's not an easy role as most mums will agree, especially while running your own business, however it is a rewarding one. Life is hectic and a juggle but I wouldn't change a thing..... even when they drive me crazy! LOL.
Some of the things they come out with are hilarious and it is never a dull moment. One of my favourite conversations was in the car on the way to work one day. Being a midwife they have been exposed to all things childbirth and Freya said..."Mum does it hurt when you have a baby?" I told her yes it does but it is a good pain. Her brother then proceeded with an entire explanation about what happens including the doctor wearing gloves that go right up to his elbow! Freya then exclaimed that she didn't want to have a baby to which Angus replied, "It's ok. I'll be there." I said well actually she might not want you there you know and he said, "Yeah, she will. That's what big brothers are for. To look after you." I can hear you now....awwwww but I can also hear them in their rooms right now arguing about something so I'd say it's a fair bet he wont be there!
So here they are....
Angus: He is the clown. Always loves clowning around and playing practical jokes just like his mother. He's my smiley eyed boy. As a baby he was big, bald and gorgeous and is growing into such a handsome young man. Although he is often a handful he has a very sweet nature and is a proud member of our local scout den. Angus loves school and I am so proud of his efforts. He is also competitive... just like me :D
Freya: The Actress. She loves dancing around, dressing up and talks in the most expressive tones with wide blue eyes. As I write this she is prancing around in a belly dancing outfit she just found in the cupboard. The moves are hilarious! She's a cuddly girl....my squidgy bear. A few years ago she opened the front door, announced that she was going to Hollywood and left. On that note I am being called to watch her latest performance so
until next time.... Willow
