Jessica and Sophie picking up blossom petals in Grandma's garden

It has been wonderful having both my girls at home all day for the Easter holidays. I can’t quite believe that my big girl is now two-thirds of the way through her Reception year. It really does seem only yesterday that I dropped her off at school for the first time and shed a few… Read More

A heart with the text "Heart to Heart" on one side and a picture of hands making a heart over a child's chest with the text "A linky for sharing posts about CHD"

Heart to Heart linky was set up to help other heart families share their stories and experiences in order to help support each other as a community.  It opens on the 15th of each month and stays open for a week so there is plenty of time to share your CHD-related posts. You can share… Read More

Sophie and Jessica at one of the clues on the Easter trail at Black Park

Friday Focus 14/04/17 – Catching up with family

14/04/201713/04/2017
A doodle of my girls having fun with their cousins with the word "Family" - this week's word of the week

One of my favourite things about the holidays is being able to spend time catching up with my family. Now that Jessica is at school, it’s much more difficult to visit family during term-time so the time we have during holidays is extra-precious. The girls have enjoyed having a sleepover at my sister’s house and… Read More

Now that the weather is starting to get warmer, it’s time for the girls to swap their winter coats for spring jackets.
