All I can say is, thank goodness these summer school holidays were smoke free and somewhat more carefree than last summer. Yep, the threat of covid still hung over our heads, with snap lock downs in parts of the country, Christmas for some people was not what they had planned, and state borders suddenly shut overnight. But through the eyes of my kids, at least we could get outside and explore the great outdoors without getting lung fulls of smoke.

This is Jodie. She’s tough, determined and about to tackle a mammoth effort on her own.

I've known this family since our oldest 2 kids were brand newbies and Tegan and I were in mother's group together.
