One weekend. Two mums. Two kids. Approximately 47,000 steps and zero regrets.

Ive been a tad quiet on here this year...

Safe to say life has been busy, in the best way!

New chapter. Same me. Bigger goals ✨️

Officially a licensed Real Estate Salesperson and excited to see where this journey takes me 🏡💜 by @stephenie.rose

This year alone, I’ve watched Jaxon go from strength to strength - showing courage in boxing, powering through ongoing check-ups without a flicker of hesitation, and making a huge leap forward in his schoolwork after a couple of tough years.

But more than anything, I’ve seen the way he shows up for his friends, for others who need a voice, and for the people he cares about. His kindness, empathy, and thoughtfulness are his real superpowers.

He is, without question, the best son a mother could ever wish for. My heart is full watching him grow into exactly who he’s meant to be and I'm endlessly proud.

Happy 9th birthday, my beautiful boy 💜🎂 by @stephenie.rose

Black and white photo, but life’s finally in colour again 🌈 I’ve been very quiet this year — focused on working towards my goals and doing what makes me feel good. After a rough few years, it feels good to remember who I am again ✨️ by @stephenie.rose

They really got me good 🥹✨

I truly thought I was skipping my birthday this year…
But instead, I got whisked away for a weekend of pampering, soaking, relaxing and being loved on in the most magical way 💖

Shan planned everything and got the girls in on the secret plans too 😭💅🧖‍♀️🍸🎉

From surprise mani/pedis, massages, and a mineral spa soak plus a weekend getaway at the GORGEOUS Tiny on Kaipi… To being casually dropped off for a sneaky “cocktail at snug” only to walk into a room full of my favourite people 🥺🥰

Kicking myself that I was so caught off guard and forgot to take photos with everyone - I'll get you next time Ash, Bry, Leah, Jay 🫶

Speechless.
Grateful.
Spoiled.
Still smiling.
Still in disbelief.
Still feeling the love 💖

I’ll never forget it 💫
