Arley was a natural at being a mother. Doted on Dot in the best and most encouraging of ways. My text feeds are full of the cute things Dot said to her, the rocks she collected, the art she made. Even when it was hard she never faltered. She LOVED her little girl. #thatwasarley

Arley was a baker. She loved going the extra mile. She once popped over with leftover cupcakes she made for her book club. They were each decorated with books that had little pages with black scribbles on them - all hand made #thatwasarley

She was always on call for any of my baking needs/crisis. She once stayed up late night with me helping my decorate my sons second birthday cake. Her genius idea was to use melted chocolate to form his back plates. Seriously saved the day.

Our favourite park memory was when dot got away on her and ran towards the road. All these crows popped up out of nowhere, perched on the hedges ahead of where Dot was running and began cawing loudly in chorus. Dot stopped in her tracks and watched as we caught up #thatwasarley

She told me she posted the story and it went “viral” on Twitter. We both revelled in the magic of that moment. She said dot always had a special relationship with crows.

Just to add, dot was never in danger here - we tag teamed lassoing our kids and I was gaining on Dot quickly lol. Crows got to her first!!

Going through all my texts with Arley over the years. God, what an amazing mother she was. Completely devoted, supportive and patient. Always up for anything. Our park adventures were endless. #thatwasarley

This was taken out of a self-help book on how to make the most out of life, but I think it describes what it takes to be a #geologist - to the T! What do you think? :) #science #lovelife #lookcloser
