So beautiful. Watching your journey unfold makes me cry. I’ve been a Christian my whole life but I feel in my 30s, I just understand with every fiber of my being how radically dependent I am on Christ.

As I move off the island I've been on for 4.5 years and have moved around 7 times in 7 months, I so needed to read this, I so needed the reminder to eat a Freddo Frog (ha, never heard of him) and chill. Much love to you FIVE now and Merry Christmas!

Writing in precious moments with your big leaking boobies 🧡

Giggling at you onstage as a donkey 😆👏

And remembering my nostalgic Christmas with Cheezels on every finger and excitement in my eyes , running wild with cousins .

Congratulations on bringing another new life into the world—welcome Figgy! I’m over the moon happy for you and all the family. Merry Christmas Peta! Please give my love to Erik and your mom for me. Wishing you all a happy, healthy, joyous 2024. I look forward to more of your wonderful writing in the new year❤️

"I am mindful of my limitations and also mindful not to tell myself that I should be more stressed than perhaps I really am." Mmmmm, yes yes yes.

Congrats on the new lil bub, Peta. ✨ Sending you so much love in these beautiful & tender early days🫶

So wonderful reading your update Peta, much love and blessings to you and Erik and your beautiful babies at Christmas. I am a lucky Nana to three grandbabies, the most recent a 5 1/2 month old very old soul, and the next one due on February 5th. Interestingly, I remember as a little girl, my parents writing Xmas, and it seemed like rushing writing it and it botheted me so much, and so I never have done that. I've always written it out in full. I looked very forward to resuming in January.

Congratulations on Figgy my love. I owe it to you and your slippery slide mantras that number 2 shot out before the midwife could even arrive. Love hearing of all the things god inspires in you and especially around CHRIST-mas.

Big love PK and fam. X
