I am a daughter, a friend, a wife, and most of all a Mother. It was quite a journey to motherhood, but I am enjoying my children everyday because of the struggle. I grew up because of them and I am continuing to be a better mom and person everyday. I adore my husband and my kids and they, in turn, adore me. We are Growing Up Souter. Monday, January 14, 2013.

Saturday, April 14, 2012. Harbin Snow and Ice Festival. This is a collection of photos, some in addition to those on my main blog. Temperatures were around -16C during the day and plunging to around -26C as the sun went down. This noticeable drop started around 3. Blocks of snow waiting for the snow carving competition.

My latest series of blogs will be photos taken not so far from home. I do have to travel in order to take them; even if is on foot, bike or a short trip in the car. So they do qualify as travel photos! Monday, July 13, 2015. With the recent cold weather and a continuation of -8C frosts, there is plenty of ice around. The duck-pond down near the Pleasant Point Domain has frozen over. All the ducks have gone except 6 rather tame white geese.
