Wie geht's?
You find me in New Plymouth with most of my side of the southern hemisphere subbranch of the Purdy clan: Jacky Purdy; Adam, Ashleigh and Poppy Mae Purdy; Jade Purdy with Asher Purdy-Hodge and Chris; Samantha Purdy and Andrew.
We're all holed up in an air B'n'B together, enjoying some great family time. We don't often manage to get the majority of us together, the last time was our visit to Noosa for Jacky's 60th birthday. Keegan wasn't able to join us for either event so, unfortunately, we have not been united in toto for six years.
Tricky when our four children live in four different countries.
The reason for this clan gathering? Actually, there are two: the scattering of Pat Smith's ashes (yesterday) as per her wishes, and our nephew's wedding on Saturday. Both are combined with the other side of the Jacky's southern hemisphere subbranch of the Smith clan. Families have their own lovely organic way of multiplying and morphing.
One sombre but absolutely respectful occasion and one happy celebratory event. The balance of life.
Love and peace - Wozza
