Just one, simple photo, from
one simple moment. Sometimes it is the simplest things that make a Mumma/Mummum
happy. (Tamika calls me Mumma, Jarvis calls me Mummum). Looking over and seeing
your two children so comfortable and cuddling up on the couch.
This week Jarvis has learnt
to say Tamika's name. Okay, not really, but for the first time he is actually
addressing her by something. The unfortunate thing is, he is shortening Tamika,
who sometimes gets Teak, to Dick. This week all he talks about is Dick, he will
say "Dick home", his way of asking if Tamika is coming over. Lucky
for him, Tamika has had dinner with us every night this week, bar for Thursday
night. During the day he will ask "Dick home" and if I am not quick
enough he gets my mobile and calls her. Yes, he knows how to unlock it and
phone his sister.
Last year Jodi inspired me to pick up my camera and
turn the focus inward. This year I have opted to continue with the series as I
feel there are still so many family stories to be told through photos. So I
will continue to Link up with Jodi (the artist formerly known as Che
& Fidel now Practising
Simplicity) for the 52 Project.
Such a beautiful moment you've captured here. You're heart must burst just looking at it.
ReplyDeleteI know, it is such a special feeling watching siblings just adore each other
ReplyDeleteHow precious such a sweet moment. The heart swells with moments like these,
ReplyDeleteSometimes it is the simple things your children do that make you so proud you are a parent
ReplyDeleteAWWE That is so cute that he pulls out your phone to call her. This photo is precious! & Dom calls me "mama" seldom does he call me "mommy" or "mom"
ReplyDeleteIs it bad that at two Jarvis knows how to unlock and dial his sister?
ReplyDeleteIt is!
ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest thing ever. I can't believe he already knows how to use your phone! And Julie, congratulations on the wonderful news xoxox
ReplyDeleteIt freaks me just a little how quickly Jarvis learns new technologies. Tamika showed him the code on her I Phone and know he remembers it and can unlock her phone as well
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo.
ReplyDeleteIt is crazy how quickly they catch on to tech things…I suppose it is simply a part of their life.
I love that he calls her Dick! I wonder if that name will stick?
Think it may for awhile, as we are now calling her Dick as well
