I don't know if this is true for all mums, but for me, one of the best ways to show love is by loving my kids.  In this challenging season, I am clearly well loved.  I just wanted to share a few moments that the kids have been able to enjoy in the last 3 weeks as this adventure carries on.

The idea of this post also has encouraged me to take more pictures when people visit, so if you come to visit and I don't snap a photo, please remind me.  The pace of hospital life is distracting, but I'd love the picture reminders of love poured out.
