Home

native irises
Late in 2009, after Christmas in Sydney, I did not want to come back to Adelaide.  Although I had lived in Adelaide for a year then, it did not feel like home.

This time everything was different.  I could hardly wait to get back.  I wanted to check up on my garden to see how the plants had survived the heat.  I wanted to cook real food (not travelling food) in my own kitchen.  And I wanted to sleep in my own bed, knowing my kids were asleep in theirs.

It has taken more than two years, but Adelaide is finally home.

I am not a fan of irises, but that one is absolutely beautiful. I'm so glad you are feeling at home.

Hearing how you feel about Adelaide now is such an answer to prayer, is it not!?
