So then this happened. My beautiful girl graduated Grade 6. After an incredible 12 months, a year full to the very brim of experience, learning and growing, she has finished the year on a high with the same kids she started Prep with back in 2012. I was fully prepared with a wad of tissues in my bag. Certain I would drown in a flood of happy/proud/sad/excited for the next chapter tears, but I didn’t. Instead I was just beaming with pride and joy. My girl. Always stay as sweet as you are right now. I couldn’t be more proud if I tried xxx

I really don’t like the word tween- the name given to children from the ages 8 to 12. Why can’t they just be called kids? 🤷🏼‍♀️ With that said, it seems I have two in this household, and it’s been interesting putting rooms together since arriving back in Australia, and in our new home. Both Lil and Spence have gone into double beds which they’re loving. We all needed new linen, but per my IG stories last week, we’re keeping it to a minimum, and quality over quantity this time around. I’m not at all interested in having a linen press bursting at the seams these days! We have a few less walls in this cosy home, so the kids have scored some of our fabulous art pieces for their own rooms. All Lil desired was pink, mint and gold and also a desk - a space for her to write and create. Easily pleased and she’s loving her new little piece of the world 💓

Home sweet home after an epic whirlwind weekend in Sydaneee and enjoying snuggles with my little people tonight. It’s beginning to look like Barnesmas ‘round here. Can’t believe how quickly it’s creeping up! Have you put your tree up yet? 🎄 #barnesmas2018

Birthday weekend is done and dusted and what a weekend. This little girl right here, she is so very loved. It’s really nice to be home and celebrate these special times with family and friends. Now most importantly, who’s coming over to eat the rest of the party food?! #cakefordinner

12 today. What a year this young lady has had. I can’t actually believe 12 years have passed since I became a Mum to the most precious, yet impatient little premature baby girl. Positively the sweetest thing I had ever, ever laid my eyes on. Perfect in every way. From the tip of her cone head, right down to her teeny toes. Now, she’s wearing the same size 9 shoes as I am and has grown into the most remarkable young lady. A kind, thoughtful, generous, clever and super creative soul. I adore you my Lily Jane. Always have. Always will. 💓

So we arrived safely into Melbourne 3 weeks ago and hit the ground running 🏃🏼‍♀️ We knew it’d be a busy time for us, but we literally have. not. stopped. Andrew was back at work the following week, the kids started back at school the week after that. We were reunited with our beloved pooch, and moved into our new home 🏡 Last Friday was Breaky for Boobies, which for those who have followed me for a while (since before we started full time travelling), will know that this is our 3rd event in 2 years. B4B is a labour of love for my friend Emily and I. This year Emily ran our campaign in Australia whilst I did my bit from whichever country we were in at the time. Great team work as always and we’ve achieved some incredible results. Whilst I may have crashed and burned a little this week (the dreaded lurgy has got me good...🤧😷🤒), I’m feeling super content at the moment. We have some travel plans in the works for the near future which will be fabulous, but for right this minute - I’m enjoying being a Mum, working on getting the blog up to date, and looking forward to Christmas in our new home with my tribe. #lifeisgood #newnormal

First sleep at our new place last night. First time owning a king size bed. Never looking back. Happy Sunday my insta friends x

11.11.2000 You were that boy from the other side of town who owned your blonde tips and baggy jeans like no ones business. Our paths would have never crossed if it weren’t for that one night at a Christian College bush party in Meredith when we were all but 16 years old. It took over a year after our initial meeting, but on the 11th November 2000, the timing was right, you were just perfect, and on the dance floor at the Eureka, you asked me to be yours. Here we are- 18 sweet years later. What a life we’ve shared my beautiful man. Love you long time 💙 #foreverever

About Clare

We are a family of 4 from Australia and we love to travel. We are all too aware that life is short, so we spent 6 months planning a year long round the world trip together and now we are living our dream. We sold our home and packed our worldly possessions into storage. With 4 backpacks and a heart full of dreams, we have set off. Read more
