Community spirit and a smile...




The spirit of community is alive, overwhelming and simply amazing...i feel so proud and constantly moved by so much of what I am seeing right now in our home town.
One day before the devastating floods, we had news that made us smile!
Our little winter baby due in July is healthy and strong...we can't wait to hold you little one x

We are safe and dry.
We are very close...very very close to the devastation. Thank goodness our suburb is up and over a hill and our local creeks did not flood (they did in 74) We have been glued to the television and praying for the rain to stop!
On a drive today I took these pictures - this is what we came across.............very hard to believe but this is a local restaurant hub we love to visit!

Some of our favourite places are totally underwater - Southbank, toddler centre in the Gallery of Modern Art, local restaurants, the river walk and our local parks. 
It really is heartbreaking to watch and see!


Your kind and thoughtful words mean so much...a very big thank you!
