Welcome back to Country Kids. We’ve been enjoying the feeling that normality is slowly returning over the last couple of weeks.

One of those weeks where things feel manageable, the to-do list is doable and while there are things going on underneath the calmness of the surface, I have the energy to deal with them, which is definitely an improvement on last week!     Hubby’s been working long hours… Read More

It’s been so good to see things beginning to open up again over the last few weeks, and to start taking steps towards normality again. Fun fairs are one of the things that can now reopen. Sophie had spotted the signs for one being held near us over the bank holiday weekend, so we headed… Read More

30/04/202130/04/2021
The word 'low' in grey

I’ve been feeling a little low this week and finding myself getting a bit discouraged over things. My energy levels have been low and I’m not sure whether it’s more due to a few disturbed nights, or tiredness caused by getting my first Covid vaccine at the weekend or a bit of both.    … Read More

Me and Mine – April 2021

April is a tough month for us with the first half of the month tinged with painful memories leading up to the anniversary of Jessica’s death. The day itself was easier than the days leading up to it, as it has been in the last two years too. We spent time with Jessica at her… Read More

The words 'opening up' in purple

It’s been a busy week with various activities opening up again. Sophie started back at swimming last week, and this week her dance classes restarted back in the dance studio.

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.
