Packed My Small Kids In The Car To Relocate But Didn’t Know To Where Until We Arrived
In 1999 I was living in Batchelor, Northern Territory. I was a single Mother of two beautiful boys, aged six and three-years-of-age. I owned the house we lived in and a second investment property in town. I was also working full time.

I Wish You Knew I Loved You
Every time I see a cherry blossom, I remember you. The dainty petals remind me of your little fingers. Every time I see the moon, I see your eyes. So far away, just like how we are now. I remember those deep, glassy orbs behind your lashes reflecting mama’s beaming smile when she saw you for the first time. As you looked back, I could’ve sworn that the first time I saw your smile, I saw a glimpse of you—of us—in the future, together. Just like that, I had an image of you growing up. I saw you playing in the backyard as I watched from afar. I saw myself taking you to school, holding your hand as we walk together. I saw my future in your eyes. Because to have you then meant having you with me forever. And it was like a beautiful rift in time. In that moment, I became so aware of everything, of what it feels like to be alive. Just like that, everything changed. I was amazed that I could feel that much, to see you cradled in mama’s arms and cooing softly. It felt like the universe softened its heart for a moment when I saw your gummy smile. Watching you from behind the glass felt like an ocean apart. I wanted to reach through and hold you. You were so small yet so beautiful. A girl like you could give a lost man newfound hope. I wish I could’ve held you and felt the warmth of your body against my own. I wanted you to know that I was there, that I cared about you.

George's Early Morning Adventure
"Ohhhh, I've got to get to the toilet. I hope I can make it" ... "why's it so dark?" "What time is it?" "I've got to get to the toilet. Where is it?" "I've found the door. I need my shoes. No, I'll get them after. Ooooo I need the toilet. Is it through here? No, it's too dark. What time is it? Oh I found it. The toilet. At last"

Whatcha Know, Girl?
My grandmother, Janet, who I called Nanie (pronounced Nan-EE), not to be confused with the paid for kind who trains at an academy for au pairs, grew up the oldest child out of ten siblings, nine living (one died right after birth) of two tenant farmers in a holler in Kentucky. A holler is just what is sounds like. It's named a holler because if you yell someone's name, the sound is magnified because of the rolling knobs and mountains. If you've never been to the middle of fucking nowhere, just imagine a valley, but way more fucked up. Less Air BNB and more Final Destination.

THE NOBLE PEAR
REGARDING PEARS People don’t always know what they’re eating. We grow up being fed whatever it is our parents think will keep us alive, based on Gerber foods and baby books. And of course, as babies, we also determine what we’ll actually eat once exposed to solid food, by either spitting it out or simply refusing to open our mouths.

Those Were the Days
When I was a kid growing up in San Francisco, I spent a huge amount of my spare time outside. So did my brother and sister and the other kids in the neighborhood. Our parents sent us outside and “don’t come back until the street lights turn on.” People say that all the time like it’s some sort of mantra from the “old days” before everything changed and kids no longer enjoyed all the freedom we had.
