Obligatory 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 #sleepnowTook the sad processing big emotion boy on my walk this morning. Ever hopeful that the joy of early morning freshness and wonder at bunnies and squirrels and the smells of spring will lodge deep in his soul and help him as he walks through this life. Also lovely to have chats without the shouting as we meandered around the green green world. #happyfriday #beauty #nourishment #joy #chats #parentingBeautiful child free morning out to celebrate another year of my favourite and best. Also had our first meal out since September. Ahhhhh. Happy joy all round. Happy Birthday to the brilliant Husbandface. #birthday #fun #joy #happy #dayoffIt’s a three cup of tea book reading afternoon around here. After a morning outside I feel less bad that the boys have been entertained by audio books, a film and the convenient arrival of a long anticipated computer game. It’s a good book :) #reading #tea #outsourcedparentingAnd in the midst of exhausted plodding on there are mornings of sunrise, light on the green growth going on in our woods, hope dancing on the horizon, resurrection happening over and over again in this beautiful world. #tired #joy #exhausted #smiling #weary #hope #resurrectionArchives

Advent 12
Wonder found despite a tired fractious day. It was at least a good start on a short walk up the hill to remember what morning walks feel like. Strange to be out again after 2 or more weeks. Sad that … Continue reading
Advent 23
And breathe. In and out. In and out. Slowly. In and out. One more day to get through for the small overtired ones. One more day until we remember the heart of this story we are all part of, a … Continue reading
Advent 22
Lots of my favourite carols this morning: Angels from the realms of glory, Wing your flight o’er all the earth; Ye who sang creation’s story, Now proclaim Messiah’s birth Come and worship, Come and worship, Worship Christ, the newborn King! Shepherds, … Continue reading
Advent 21
The shortest day. When you and your family have hit the wall of extreme tiredness. Incredibles 2. Masterchef. Library. Counting Christmas lights on the way home from the Library. Weary bones. Grateful of reminders that into the deepest dark the … Continue reading
Advent 7
And sometimes the wonder is hard to find, because of small boys and coughs and 4 hours sleep. Some days you wander through in a haze, living purely each moment as it comes. Smiles from the eldest at Pump track … Continue reading

Advent 16
It’s been one of those days. One of those weary soul tiring days where there has been plenty of wonder but an underlying tone of exasperation, with the boys, with myself, with this imperfect world of ours. I have not … Continue reading
Thoughts from the week.
The weekly roundup is back. It’s been full of ups, downs and roundabouts and I miss pondering the week just gone in this space. So, in no particular order, here are some thoughts. I am tired. I looked back in … Continue reading

On breathing.
I sit at the end of another long day. I sit and I breathe. In and out. In and out. The sun slowly sinks in the sky. The world is glowing around me. In the background I hear the noises … Continue reading
A short rant…for the God botherers who pass by here…
I’m tired. Not of life, I quite like life at the moment, it’s spring, the daffodils are looking lovely and I’m enjoying pottering along. I’m tired of somethings though. I’m tired of English Christians grabbing anything they can get from … Continue reading
