Friday Focus 02/06/17 – Half-term bugs

02/06/201702/06/2017
A doodle of the word "unwell" with a cartoon version of me leaning on the 'w', looking unhappy with my head resting in my hands

Half-term has been somewhat overshadowed by being unwell. I’ve had a horrible cough since the start of half-term which has made me tired and grumpy. Hubby’s away working on an event for the whole of half-term (and has been suffering from the same cough) so it’s not the best timing. I’ve tried to keep going… Read More

This year we’re taking part in #30DaysWild – a challenge from the Wildlife Trusts to get outside each day in June, do something wild and connect with nature. I love getting out and about with the girls. This is a perfect way to encourage us to spend even more time out of doors. I wonder… Read More

An evening at one of their favourite places, with the promise of getting to see real fairies and magical creatures is irresistible. The Enchanted Museum event at Chiltern Open Air Museum was one… Read More

Me and Mine – May 2017

A family "totem pole" photo - from top to bottom - Sophie, hubby, Jessica and me

We’re now into one of hubby’s busy periods at work. This means that he’s been working away on events for several days at a time. Even when he is home, he often leaves the house before we all wake up, and is home long after the girls are in bed. Half-term has coincided with one… Read More

From the mouths of babes #121 – Rain, rain, go away…

29/05/201728/05/2017
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"

From the mouths of babes is a weekly linky which invites you to share a post, old or new, about something your children have said. Those adorable mispronounced words, the glimpses into their imaginations, the blunt observations – whatever it is, I’d love to hear about it!   Thank you to everyone who linked up… 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.
