JaM As a Child



This weeks JaM is all about the Child you were.........................


How life's experiences and dreams have shaped us into the people we are today.


I actually don't even remember the above photo being taken but its the only one of me in a dress, cardy and handbag, most of our photos were taken in front of Dad's garden beds and that's who i get my love of gardening from.
 I do usually have a smile on my face most days.


                                                   
Many trips camping, visiting the beach, Sunday drives .....................

                                                      
I always enjoyed time spent under the big blue skies "In the Country"
and carried a little dream inside me that one day i would find my own special place.......................................

Of course my mother played a huge part in the person i am today, she encouraged and allowed me to be me.............................

Taught me how to Sew, knit and cook...................
Never passed judgement on my choice of friends................
Was ready to help when i asked................the list is endless..........


My Mum.................photo taken by my dad before they were married.

  3. Love the first pic of you Andrea! Such the little Miss with a glorious smile!
    Are you all standing in frothy water at the beach or snow in that second shot. It actually looks to me as though you're all about to be washed away by the tide coming in!!! :)
    You must have had a really lovely childhood with that wonderful mum. She sounds like a real gem!
