Why make a normal Victoria sponge cake when you can make a blue and green one? Thankfully still tastes yummy... #cake #rainysaturday #timeforacuppaDay 1 of being signed off the bit of work I could be signed off from, due to exhaustion. Realising how tired my body is. Saw amazing bluebells. Inhaled their scent. Stumbled home to sit in the sun. Stared at bluetits on our cherry tree. Read a bit of a book. Napped for an hour. Repeated go slow, be gentle, be kind to yourself. Felt grateful for being able to be signed off. #sleep #rest #bestillmysoul #bekindtoyourself #mentalhealth #bluebells #stopping #tiredness48 hours away in Selsey to pay attention to my body, listen to @lostwordsspellsongs from the National History Museum, drink @skylark.coffee, hang out with the One who loves me most, walk in pretty places, have a morning walk in ancient Yew trees with my Dad, read books and realise the weight of exhaustion that covers me right now. Grateful for the husbandface for holding the fort and My Maker for blue seas, green grass and a beautiful word to bumble around in. #timeoff #exhaustion #beauty #soulsoothing #toesjusttouchedthewaterWalking my tired body around the woods. Noticing the green creeping higher and wider each day. This world reminding me that resurrection always comes. That hope will win out. That there are inescapable wonders even through the aching bones and fog in my brain. #inescapablehope #walkingon #green #blueskiesObligatory I’ve had a haircut selfie! Ah the small joys of life in this weird world. #haircut #pandemiclife #grateful #feelinglikemeFound some friends and good times out at Queen Elizabeth Country park today. Beautiful sunshine and amazing assault course for the not so small ones. All exhausted now! #sunnysaturday #friends #blueskies #queenelizabethcountrypark #sleepnowArchives

This time last year…
This time last year. (well technically tomorrow will be the actual date when labour started but it was the Friday before half term and today is also the Friday of half term and that sets off this train of thought) … Continue reading
A year on…
It’s been almost a year. Almost a year since our world turned upside down. Almost a year since my world shattered into pieces and I became that most misunderstood of creatures. Almost a year since I became a mother, a … Continue reading
Grumpy mornings
My son is having a grumpy morning. He didn’t go down for his morning nap for reasons that escape us both. He is therefore grumpy and sad. He bangs his head against things and cries. I call him to come … Continue reading
Thoughts about work…
This weekend, as well as giving thanks for sonface, involved the genius of heading to London for Anna and Sarah Day. These days are the best kind of day, a day of peace, of sitting on sofas with big mugs … Continue reading
Thankful
Today we celebrated together with friends and family the crazy wonderful gift of our son. We figured, 10 months down the line, that we are thankful that he is in our lives. So we wanted to celebrate, rejoice in God’s … Continue reading
The ‘we’re back from camp’ post…
3 weeks seems a long time to go without writing. Hmm. What happened? Ah yes, the husbandface is on holiday, we’ve jaunted around the country a bit visiting friends and family. We’ve attempted to entertain our small son for a … Continue reading
Dear Daddy…
This blog post is brought you to from our small squirmy son. It’s Fathers Day and he wanted to give some love to the husbandface, who, as it turns out, gets two soppy posts a year now. I can’t imagine … Continue reading
From the world of holiday…
Today is our last day of holiday on the lovely Kent coast – we’ve had a lovely time away, well as lovely as you can with a small boy who still thinks sleep is for the weak. It’s in these times … Continue reading
And now for something completely different…
This weekend I had the first test of the Great British Public’s approach to buggies on trains. Sonface had his first trip out on a train, as you can see he was pretty entranced by the lights and movement going … Continue reading
