Thirty years ago... a pictorial tribute to our darling daughter!

This past Sunday we were still awake not long past the witching hour of midnight and reminiscing...

Thirty years ago almost exactly Amber Catherine Stewart entered the world and greeted her excited parents with howls of delight (at least that was how we interpreted her birth cries!)

She soon captivated our hearts and became the much photographed/videod/coddled first of the Stewart clan's grandchildren.

 Her latter auburn locks were preceded by a fine ginger dusting which nicely matched her proud father's beard.

Big sister and little brother

Early fascination with primitive i-phone

Early driving lessons...

Thirty years on and we are still immensely proud of our darling daughter - and it was a treat to celebrate with the rest of the immediate family at Healesville's Giant Steps on Sunday night.  


Aunty Amber received a special gift from her favourite and highly talented niece Arieta of a painting she specially crafted for the occasion...

Not to be outdone, Nephew Samuel presented her with his own creation - a necklace to be treasured!
