I’m still struggling through this plastic tub of Tony’s scrapping as I go in between my usual household chores. (which take me a lot longer lately since I pulled a hamstring behind my knee – ouch!) However I’m on the mend and even doing a couple of short walks twice a day. Anyhoo……….I’ve also a member of the Bent Inks arriving tomorrow afternoon for some team training. Vicki McBride will arrive from Kyogle tomorrow and stay Thursday evening, so I thought I’d better post this pic before I get too busy chatting/stamping/scrapping etc.
I’ve always loved this pic of Tony. I’ve no idea who took it but I know it was at my neices birthday in Ballina. It was a very hot day and Dennis had taken the children down to Shaw’s Bay for a quick dip before lunch. This photo is so very typical of Tony and how easy going and relaxed a kid that he was. He’s still showing the effects of his prematurity in this photo it’s an interesting exercise to look back at how far he’s come……….and grown. It’s also the pic that we had enlarged and gave it to the doctor that took such good care of me when I was pregnant with Tony (actually he delivered the first two of my children) Dr. John Chadwick. Dr. C as the kids called him was the typical family GP, he loved my kids and Tony was his smallest surviving babe. He had a soft spot for him. Dr. C was promoted to Glory a few years ago now, it was like loosing a special member of our family really. So this page was special for me and I really like how it turned out. What do you think? Please leave me a comment.
