2/52

"A portrait of my husband and our marriage, once a week, every week, in 2013."

Richard: caught wave after wave. Perfect conditions, he said. My action man. I prefer to bob and float while he screams past.
We: finally taking our first step of many down this new path. Uncertain, hopeful.


 Participating in the 52 Portraits series led by Jodi at Che & Fidel.

    Wauw, that second picture almost brought tears to my eyes. I just read your "Three years in the life of..." post. I cannot begin to understand how hard that must be, but your story touched me deeply. I wish you all the best and I am very exited for you on this first step down the new path.

      Thanks so much, Ulla. It can be daunting to share such personal things on the blog but I'm so grateful for the support. It helps! I'm learning that the community is one of the best things about blogging. Belinda x

      Thanks! I reckon 52 weeks could be challenging at times as I cant rely on husband to do something cute for the camera but, I'm giving it a red hot go. And he's being a great sport ;-) Belinda x

      Thanks Sian, I appreciate it - we could sure use all the luck and good thoughts! Richard is from ye olde Blighty and my sister has just returned from 2 years there too. Lovely to hear your sis is enjoying her time in Oz, such a rite of passage for our countries isn't it! Belinda x

      Thanks Bron. It normally isn't too long before I leave him to it and retreat to the beach umbrella and a book ;-) Belinda x
