Blasting comfort zones

It has been a while since my last update, and to be honest it has been absolutely crazy over the last couple of weeks.


Talking of comfort zones, I commit today to an update every week which will be posted by Sunday every week.


About three weeks ago I was happily "living"in my comfort zone with my children and with no real changes since pretty much forever.


That situation has changed so rapidly, I think my head is still spinning.


One day we were still waiting for Matric results, the next minute my daughter had accepted an offer to study at the University of Cape Town


We spent the next two weeks planning her move to Cape Town, in a blur of booking flights, shopping and quite tearful goodbyes. I still find myself wondering what the hell actually happened.


I have been shell-shocked this past week, and only recently have I really realised just how much my family dynamic has changed.


Amy is settling in happily in Cape Town, and I can feel how much my life has changed.


Certainly the comfort zone I have been living in for so long is gone, blasted away in a sea of pride, and some anxiety to be sure.


I know now, that I need to live my life for Graeme, as nerve-wracking as that feels right now.


Finding Graeme, which honestly has been an eternal game of hide & seek, is now an absolute reality and I cannot give up on that pursuit now.


Thank you, Amy, for continually blasting my comfort zones away, I am incredibly proud of you.


Aidan, your quiet strength through all of this change, which I know has impacted you too, has been quite remarkable, thank you.
