| Thanks Nicky for capturing this photo for me while I sit at home waiting for baby to wake up from her nap :) As you can see, here's Matilda with Minnie & Mimi having a thirst quenching drink during their sports day at DESS. |
Here are a bunch of photos and stories of what we have been up to since moving to Doha, Qatar, in July 2006. Enjoy! Brendan, Samantha, Isabelle, Matilda & Josephine
