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.
