Ongoing series. At the beginning of lockdown, we were participating in Joe Wicks P.E sessions (most days), we had full days of home-schooling, and bedtime was ‘a thing’. Although I was struggling with anxiety about the virus, I felt in control of what was happening in our home. Eight weeks in. It’s a whole different… Read More Lockdown – Daily insight.

As fast as he turned 13, he turned 14. FOURTEEN! I find it quite unbelievable really, to think in just 4 teeny years, he’ll be legal to drink in the pub with his Dad. And I bet that’s the first thing he’ll do. I’ve told him, ‘just one though’ 🙂 On your birthday it is… Read More 14TH Birthday.
