Filed under: General, Parenting — Bel @ 5:02 pm

This article was initially written for Rhonda’s Blog last year.

I have six children. If I hadn’t used cloth nappies, our family could have put thousands of little bundles of paper, plastic, wee and poo into landfill. And we’d have paid around $20000 for the privilege. Yuck! Just thinking about that makes me guilty for the disposables we did use.

The Wonderful Place 7 June, 2008

Filed under: General, Parenting — Bel @ 7:32 pm

The Wonderful Chrissy has another treat for us!

For those of you who know and love Chrissy Butler’s work - remember My Brother Jimi Jazz? - her second picture book is on its way!

Again, I’ve been blessed to watch Chrissy grow this special project from the sidelines.  What a lot of hours go into something so special…

The Wonderful Place is a picture book which celebrates the joys of toddler breastfeeding, seen through the eyes of 3 year old Jimi Jazz. The artwork is ink, water colour and collage on paper. Prints can be ordered of any of the artwork, please contact Chrissy for more information about prints or orginal artwork from the book.

Filed under: General — Bel @ 11:27 pm

I was just saying tonight how disturbing it is that the government is in denial about Peak Oil and the global energy crisis. I’m not surprised to have stumbled upon this blog post by Green’s Senator Christine Milne.

What a pity more of our politicians aren’t of the same school of thought as Christine… Wake up Mr Rudd.

Final in Simple Family Life Series 29 April, 2008

Filed under: General — Bel @ 11:47 am

I have posted my fifth and final in the guest post series at Down To Earth. I wrote about home education because it’s such an intrinsic part of our whole lifestyle.

I hope to write guest posts for Down To Earth again. I am grateful to Rhonda for allowing me to write from my heart and trusting that what I have to say might be of interest to others. I feel honoured to have contributed to such a highly regarded online space again.
