Edith Harley, It doesn't look good in lockdown (JUNIOR 2022)

I took this photo, the day before my 5th birthday, on mummy’s phone in one of Melbourne’s 2020 lockdowns. This is my mum and little brother and little sister, Lawson and Ivy. I have called this photo “It doesn’t look good in lockdown” because life wasn’t perfect. I thought lockdowns were sad and boring and sometimes I was angry. I was sad I couldn’t go to school and angry because I wanted to play outside. We missed out on birthday parties and spent all day just sitting on the couch. Lawson was born in lockdown so I couldn’t buy him a present when he was born and no one got to meet him. Mum was sad about that. I feel happy now that lockdowns have ended!
