Ok, i am in sydney and trying to blog on the iPad which I haven't done before, so I am hoping that I don't mess this up too much :) This week I am grateful for being brave. Most people wouldn't find what I am doing brave, but I am in Sydney, and I am proud of myself for coming. I feel so strange, almost naked, being away from my children. I desperately miss holding their sweet little hands, kissing their sweet little heads. It has only been a few hours, I'm pretty hopeless at being away from them. This mama has MAJOR separation anxiety. But I am here, and deep down I know it will be good for me. I am also grateful for the beautiful sunset that I viewed from milson's point overlooking the harbour, while I basked in this beautiful spring weather, while the cruise ship that we went on 3 years ago in the Mediterranean went by underneath the bridge (now owned by p&o). I am grateful for the advice that I got from the comments on my post a couple of weeks ago about what to wear to the wedding. I have decided on a simple black dress, with a beautiful pink and brown silk scarf and accessories. I will try and upload a photo sometime next week if I get one :) Playing along with maxabella's grateful, but now quite sure how to do the link on iPad, please go to http://maxabellaloves.blogspot.com to read other grateful posts.
I can certainly relate to being away from your little ones and needing to be brave. I hope you enjoy yourself in Sydney, despite not having them close. xx
ReplyDeleteYay for being brave, exploring Sydney and viewing beautiful sunsets. You'll appreciate your family all the more for when you return (and the kids need to learn Mum can't be there every second of the day too!)
ReplyDeleteOh wow - good for you Sannah! Be brave, breathe deep and be a knockout...out outfit sounds GOR-GEOUS!
ReplyDeleteHello Sannah
ReplyDeleteI remember your post on your worries and separation a little while ago.
(wow - those weeks have flown).
I know your pain with separation - I am the same.
You will rock the wedding and I know your outfit will be gorgeous - I can't wait to see the photo.
take care and sending you strength hugs

ReplyDeleteStupid ipad thinking it knows what I want to write when I spell things wrongly!!!!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to thank you all for your lovely comments and support. It is nice to know that I am not the only one who find these sort of things hard. It is a morning wedding, so I better start getting ready! I'll let you know how it goes :)
Well done you! You are VERY brave, it's a big thing to be away from our littlies, good on you Sannah. Look forward to seeing your outfit. xo
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying it. I understand the separation anxiety all too well but the break will renew and refresh you I promise x
ReplyDeleteI get separation anxiety from my boys too!
ReplyDeleteI blogged today using blogpress on iPad ...I select all, Copy and paste the URL. It is fiddly though .
Facing any new experience and just getting on with it is very brave indeed, Sannah. I confess that it takes a few days for sep anxiety to settle in for me, but I know exactly how you feel !
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed the wedding. I will look for more posts to see your outfit! x
