Friday Focus 26/05/2023 – Frustrating

26/05/202327/05/2023
The word 'frustrating' in dark red

This week has been a little frustrating at times. With half-term on the horizon, I’ve been trying to get on top of work and other things on the to-do list so I can focus on doing things with Sophie and Thomas next week, but it’s been somewhat challenging thanks to blips with technology, a few… Read More

Friday Focus 19/05/2023 – Injured

19/05/202321/05/2023
The word 'injured' with a bandage drawn around the 'j' and a plaster over the 'ur'

I have an injured hubby this week after he slipped on the ramp of his work van and damaged his knee. The nurse practitioner at A&E thought that he may have dislocated his kneecap but that it had popped back in by the time his knee was X-rayed, and we’re now waiting for referal to… Read More

Friday Focus 12/05/2023 – Celebrations

12/05/202313/05/2023
The word 'celebrations' in red, white and blue with a doodle of a crown on the 'c', a cake above the 'ra' and balloons over the 'n'

It’s been a week of celebrations with the King’s Coronation and lots of local events taking place over the bank holiday weekend, followed by my birthday. We started off with Thomas’s school coronation celebrations where he went to school dressed as a prince and parents were invited to come along in the afternoon to listen… Read More

Friday Focus 05/05/2023 – Time

05/05/202313/05/2023
The word 'time' with the 'i' drawn as a wristwatch

It’s been good to have time to enjoy things this week. Sophie went on a Girls’ Brigade sleepover for the first time last weekend and thoroughly enjoyed herself. It was quite strange not having her around but it was nice too to have some one-to-one time with Thomas.     Sophie also got some one-to-one… Read More

Friday Focus 28/04/2023 – Organised

28/04/202329/04/2023
The word 'organised' with doodles of a computer and files and a kitchen sink

I’m starting to feel more organised and on top of things again after feeling fairly overwhelmed by the to-do list over the last few months. I’ve been managing to do some decluttering around the house and it’s beginning to look a lot more tidy than it has been, which has also helped ease the overwhelm.… Read More

Friday Focus 21/04/2023 – Normality

21/04/202322/04/2023
The word 'normality' in lilac

Back to normality this week after the Easter break and the highs of show week. The after-show blues hit Sophie hard on Saturday night after the final show, along with most of the other children in the cast. It is sad when a show comes to an end. It was an amazing show and I… Read More

The word 'luve' in Jessica's handwriting with her doodles of me, my husband, Jessica, Sophie and Thomas

It’s five years today since Jessica died and in honour of my beautiful big girl, I’ve chosen love as my word of the week. Jessica might have only had half a working heart but it was a heart that absolutely overflowed with love and I will always feel hugely blessed to be her mummy and… 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.
