We got a tree!

Millie and myself chopped it down ourselves too and carried it off the hill.

Talking, laughing, wiping pine needles from our hair, our car filled to the brim with prickly branches and laughter.

I care not for mess, I care not for resentment, I care not for mistakes. I care about my children, growing up and becoming free.
And it is the most liberating experience watching them fly.

I am proud.

Job done good Mam.
