mother sweet children
Mostly, I spend my time being a mother to my two children, working in my organic garden, raising masses of sweet peas, being passionately involved in conservation, recycling and solar energy.

Just look at my face. Its an extraordinary experience. All of my friends who are grandparents have been saying, just wait, a bit cynically, but its just extraordinary. You feel like a child again yourself. Just walking on air.

We all have an obligation as citizens of this earth to leave the world a healthier, cleaner, and better place for our children and future generations.

I try to avoid a specific image. I seek to play as many different women as I can to avoid having a label put on me.
