Sunset and life!

As always, I have kept Monday as my off day and today I went again to a beautiful beach just 10min away from home. I was there with Florence and the kids.
The kids were playing in the sand, Flo stood in the water (crystal clear) at ankle deep with me, holding each other, looking at the beautiful sky, birds and the children. Seagulls covered a rock island close by, two black swans swam very close to us, a bunch of naked white toddlers were jumping in the water, tourists snapping away at the sunset and me just holding my darling in my hands with these pictures around me was easily the best moment in the past months for me. I remember saying to Flo that, "I am happy!". Life is meant to be happy for all the right reasons. For me, it was a perfect evening with my loved ones. I must admit that the sunset was exceptionally beautiful too. This is my little getaway paradise, provided by God! Looking forward to the next trip, maybe next off day :)

First holiday/break in over a long time!

After more than a month being here, we managed to take a week off to see the city and sites. Julia is on school semester break so it helps too.

Slowing down after some hectic months behind is a welcome. So far we have visited the Melbourne aquarium, brighton beach and botanical gardens. Hope to see the zoo and few other places before the week ends.

Ministry has been good during Lent and Holy week. Some serious stuff will begin after this break!
