Can hardly describe the joy today of seeing my boys play again in the garden.




Springlike, the lavender blooms were pungent, the weeds were rife, the sky was a deep blue and the boys were ecstatic to be together again.

I'm sitting here now so grateful that I took my camera outside and thinking, these are some of my favourite images of the boys together. So grateful that I found my Canon which I'd hidden in my drawer when running out the house one day.

How did it feel Reuben, looking up at the sky, breathing in the fresh air, rolling around with your brother after over a week of intensive care in hospital? Pretty amazing, hey?

SO RELIEVED that Reu is back home where he belongs! You'd have never known he had just spent over a week in the PICU. He looks gorgeous, as always!

Much love to everyone,

Kristina

Catherine, the pictures are absoultely beautiful...Makes me think that I need to have you take some pictures of mine soon...before they all grow up and get married on me! When Reuben is feeling better, and you are up to it, let me know and I will schedule those.
so glad he is home and on the mend.

It's so hard to believe that Reu was in the PICU just a day before! It's amazing how resilient our kiddos are!
