Journalling reads: I am not sure what it is about you, but no-one can be unhappy when you are around. It doesn’t matter how naughty you are being, people can’t help smiling when they see you. It’s a very special talent to be able to get away with climbing up the shelving units, emptying off the contents off the shelves and then holding on to the bare shelves so you can use Mummy’s bed like a trampoline. I suppose part of it may have been to do with the fact that we were all in awe of how much destruction and chaos you could cause at such a young age! 11/05/2010.

Journalling reads: When I first got my phone, I spent a lot of time just randomly clicking photos and hoping to get one that was worth scrapping. I managed to get a lot of useless shots, thanks to using the wrong settings or photos that were just blurry or out of focus. You all got so used to me taking random photos of everything from the texture on the carpet to the junk on my desk, that you just stopped paying attention to me. You all assumed I was just taking random photos, which meant I got to capture some truly amazing moments like this one of you three. Mark was playing on the X-box when Lukas wondered in and asked to watch. It quickly went from him sitting on the bed next to his Daddy to him laying on his chest for a cuddle. Logan was only 5 months old but he was already pretty determined not to miss out on any chance for cuddles. It made me smile that even though he wanted to cuddle with you two he had to keep watching me to make sure I wasn’t going anywhere. It was so sweet to see you all laying there like that, the love you have for each other so obvious. It made me realise how lucky I am to have you all in my life. I would be lost without this little family of mine, my two amazing boys and my wonderful husband. Photo taken 10-01-2010.

Journalling reads: When we took you bowling for the first time, you really struggled to get the ball down the lane. But you refused to give up. You never once stopped smiling and you just kept on trying to be better. That is such a great lesson for you to always remember - never give up and always keep smiling. 25/02/07.

Logan's First Solo Hugs With Leia

Journalling reads: You adore your baby sister Leia, but it’s very frustrating for you when we go to visit her. You don’t want to stay in the room with her or stay and play in the day room. You always choose to be a naughty little monkey and run out of the room, usually getting yourself told off by the nurses in the process. I suppose we shouldn’t really be surprised after all you are only 2 years old. When we first took you to visit Leia you were not allowed to touch her, because she was in high dependancy care. BUt once she was moved to low dependancy and had her own side room it was much easier to entertain you, because you will pretty much do anything to be able to touch your baby sister. We started with letting you hold her hand while Mummy or Daddy was holding her, then we moved onto letting you sit on Mummy’s lap while she was holding Leia and “helping” to give her a cuddle. This time though we decided to trust you and let you hold her all by yourself. Mummy crouched down next to you just in case you moved suddenly and dropped Leia. You held her like you had been doing it forever, without me even showing you how. You supported her head and kept her safe and secure in your arms. It was adorable to see you gazing down at her with so much love in your eyes. We were so proud of you for being such a sweet big brother. 25th October 2011.

Logan Cuddling Leia

Journalling reads: One of the things I was worried about when I was pregnant with Leia, was how possessive Logan is. I was really worried he would feel jealous and hate it when he saw me cuddling her. Turns out I had no reason to be worried, he is still extremely possessive but just not of me anymore. He’s more concerned that he gets to have just as many cuddles with her as we do, he wants to touch her all the time. She’s only just 12 days old and he is already utterly in love with his baby sister. Every morning the first thing he asks when he wakes up is “we go see Leia bear now”. 26th October 2011.
I Love You Precious Girl

Journalling reads: The first time I saw you it was like being punched in the chest, you looked so much like Leo it hurt. Yet I felt the same pull towards you that I did to him, it scared me so much and made part of me want to run away from you rather than risk getting hurt so badly again. But you are now only 10 days old and already I know that no matter what happens I won’t be running anywhere.. I have fallen completely and utterly in love with you and I hate having to walk out of that hospital and not have you with me. 23rd October 2011.
