Friday Focus 16/11/18 – Remembering

16/11/201815/11/2018
Remember - this week's word of the week

Sophie took part in her first Remembrance Sunday parade this week. She did so well marching with her Girls’ Brigade friends and staying silent to remember those who have fought and died in war. I always find the remembrance service very sobering and moving and even more so this year. I couldn’t help but remember… Read More

Friday Focus 09/11/18 – Celebrating Thomas’s christening

The word 'Christening' with a vicar holding a baby over a font for the second 'i'

The big event of this week has been celebrating Thomas’s christening with our family and friends. It was a beautiful, albeit bittersweet, day. Thomas wore his grandad’s christening gown and his daddy’s christening shawl. He was full of smiles and enjoyed getting lots of cuddles with everyone. Sophie was a very proud big sister. Jessica… Read More

Friday Focus 02/11/18 – Feeling overwhelmed

02/11/201801/11/2018
Overwhelmed - this week's word of the week

I’ve been trying to juggle far too many balls this week and it’s left me feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. Hubby’s been away for the last couple of weeks so I’ve been flying solo. I’m fairly used to having to manage on my own but the combination of half-term, Sophie’s birthday and having to organise Thomas’s… Read More

Friday Focus 26/10/18 – Catching up with family

26/10/201825/10/2018
Family - this week's word of the week

This half-term has been all about spending time with family. Hubby has been away this week working on an event, but we’ve been enjoying catching up with the extended family while he’s been away. We had a meal out with my in-laws last Saturday to celebrate my father-in-law’s birthday. Sunday saw us heading down to… Read More

Emotional - this week's word of the week

The last week has certainly been an eventful and emotional one. Last Friday, the winners of this year’s BiBs awards were announced on Twitter. I was so chuffed to be named as the Inspire category winner for this year. Thank you so much to everyone who voted for me. I also had a lovely comment… Read More

Snuffly - this week's word of the week

Thomas has been a bit snuffly over the last few days. Hubby had a cold at the start of the week and seems to have shared it. Sophie and I have avoided it so far but it’s made Thomas a little more unsettled, particularly in the evenings. Thankfully hubby has been in the office this… Read More

Friday Focus 05/10/18 – Cherish the little moments

Cherish - this week's word of the week

One of the things that life with Jessica taught me is to cherish the little moments. We were always aware that our time with her could be short and tried to enjoy that time as much as we could. On the whole, I think we succeeded. I have so many beautiful memories to look back… Read More
