5 things

I've been 'tagged'! Lara tagged me to do '5 things'.
The rules are as follows:
1. someone tags you,
2. you post five things about yourself that you haven’t already mentioned on your blog,
3. you tag people you’d like to know more about.

1) I was born in Adelaide, but moved to Sydney when I was 9 months old. I didn't return until I was 36yrs old for a holiday with my family.

2) When I'm happy my house is messy - I do my best cleaning when I'm angry.

3) I absolutely cannot knit or crochet. My mother is amazing and can knit without looking. I have attempted two knitting projects in my life and they both had holes. I think it's good to accept your limits.

4) Every time my son does a wee on the toilet he gets two M&M's and I get five!

5) My youngest son (the above mentioned 3yr old) has had 3 open heart surgeries. He was born with a major heart defect and we didn't know if he would need surgery in the first few days of life. Fortunately he turned pink when he was born and we took him home for five months before his first surgery. He was 18months for his 2nd surgery and two & a half for his third. He now has a donor valve in his heart and can do the same things as any 3 yr old (except it seems to poo on the toilet!).

Artsy Crafty Babe, Mollycoddle, Pyglet, Sadieandlance, and Darnknit - you have been tagged!

Also on another note the lovely Irene from Bloesem has written about my fabrics. She has a very interesting blog with great design images from around the world. And Heather Bea has done a write up on my owls for her 'Fabric Friday'. Thanks so much girls!
