today I’ve hopped the strait and am now resting in Geelong, where Nonna is spoiling me rotten. she made me soup and told me about how she met Nonno and their forbidden love in their early twenties. she remembers everything so clearly and seeing how much it excites her makes me truly happy. this is the first time I’ve visited mum’s home solo (without any of my brothers). the walls are full of homemade decorations (Nonna is a machine with her sewing) and memories on the wall. photos of her childhood, of mum’s and my own. I’m lucky to be spending this precious time with such a caring lady. 
this has to be one of my favourite snaps on the mantelpiece (sorry you hadn’t made it to the world yet Ziah). hope you’re all doing well.
