Visiting - this week's word of the week

21/08/201720/08/2017
Jessica as a toddler with a speech bubble saying "From the mouths of babes" and the text "A linky for sharing the things kids say"

Sunshine - this week's word of the week

This week has seen the return of the sunshine and some warmer weather. It’s been good to be able to get the washing out on the line once again and feel like summer has returned. The girls have been enjoying having the paddling pool out again in the garden. While we don’t tend to let… Read More

I'm Louise, mummy of three - Jessica, forever six, who was born with half a heart and lives on in mine; and heart-healthy Sophie (born 2013) and Thomas (born 2018). I blog about living with grief after child loss, crafts, days out and the little moments of family life.
