...having a mum, brother and sister, that have different coloured skin to me I have always believed all lives matter, but as a kid we don’t have those tittles, hash tags and cool illustrations we see flying around the internet.
We just have an innate knowing we are of the same blood and we are all the same.
Being engaged to an indigenous man ( before Alove) and being part of his community and family I thought i had some little understanding about our First Nations People ... I have learnt more about language, rights and what is happening in our country this week than the whole time living with him.
His family spoke a lot about the stolen generation around the dinner table as they were apart of it but we were young kids in love planing our lives together, our racial issues was just not something as young adults that came up unless talking about our parents family stories.
I have tried to spend these past few days focusing on education.
There is so much we don’t know, there are so many stories that will be lost and we will never know.

Until last Sunday I did not know that lives lost such as David Dungay Jr were all to common in Australia.
Until last Sunday I didn’t even know what white privileged meant and that I was in fact privileged and had to research it.
Until one day ago I didn’t know that all lives matter is direct conflict to Black Lives Matter Movement.
I didn’t realise that the caption Black Lives Matter is in fact not a caption but a movement started in 2013. ( thus why I kept the original words above from my post two days ago)

These findings have then lead to a journey of discovery to so many sad facts of prejudice that is still so prevalent.
THERE IS STILL SO MUCH TO LEARN!
I am not going to get it right but I am willing to try.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank @wattleseednutrition for taking some time out to help educate me and lead me on a path of discovery over the past few days, you have done more then you realise
Also Thalia Anthony from The University of Technology Sydney - your article was so informative and lead me to ask so many more questions about what is happening in our own country. 🖤💛❤️

ISOLATION-
I am completely in awe of the way the current isolation has brought our whole world together. We are united as one, and I don’t think we have ever been able to say that before! We are united now more than ever, and I’ve personally never felt as connected to my community as I do right now. ~ Excerpt from
EMMYLOU ISSUE 2

Recently, I was fortunate enough to do a photo shoot for @camillawithlove in celebration of Mother’s Day.
I really wanted to do this one with Aaron and the kids because they have taught me so much over these past few years. Not just on how to be a better mum, but how to embrace the many intricacies of our lives with an open mind and willingness to love.
I don’t know about you guys but I really struggled when the kids hit school age. I found it quite challenging to communicate lovingly with the older kids (probably because they started to find new ways to push my buttons!) Yet watching the kids while staying home during this isolation I have embraced a new level of love and unconditional appreciation for all their little shits and giggles. I have absolutely loved it. That is until I slip into trying to control everything that happens.
When we were getting dressed for the shoot and getting in position I found I have an overwhelming tendency to control every little thing (yes you know it). Well it ended in disaster! The kids had a meltdown and I was so disappointed with the final experience that I nearly broke down.
Though after a talking it through with the whole family (Vida didn’t care much for a group discussion) and reevaluating the shoot and where I went wrong I realised that everyone tried their hardest and we were there to experience something together.
As Sage said to me so clearly on the day "We are not you mum, let us do it our way too"
So here is to the mothers out there, kicking goals,making mistakes and taking it on the chin when they do. I hear your heart and revel in your break throughs xx #camillawithlove #onceuponatime #emmylouloves
