For about a week now I’ve had a nagging sense that I’ve forgotten to do something. It was only earlier on this morning, when I was scrolling back through some recent blog posts searching for a particular piece, that I realised what it was I’d forgotten… At the beginning of June I wrote about my […]

The first week of the summer holidays disappeared in the blink of an eye and because I’m a couple of days late posting this, we’re now almost at the close of week #2. Slow down time! Here’s what we got up to…                  

This #projecthappy post marks five hundred days of happy moments!  *little celebratory dance* I had no idea when I first started this that I would be able to continue it this far.  It’s taken commitment and perseverence – both in actally picking up my camera to shoot every single day and also in being dedicated to […]

A US-based photographer and professional encourager I follow on Facebook and Instagram, Josh, posted this blog on Sunday.  It sparked a conversation on Facebook, which began with these words from one of his friends: “Often I (and maybe you) subsconsciously feel that it’s not ok to be happy right now because there are so many things that are wrong with my […]

I saw these words on the Facebook page of a woman I follow called Karen Salmansohn and upon reading them, immediately knew that I had to share them with all of you. Karen shared her story of her father’s death.  The day after he passed away, her mother gave her an envelope marked with her name.  In it were some […]

A slightly different Thursday Thought for the Day post today. I’ve been struggling a lot with stuff over the last couple of days – 6 months worth of physical exhaustion, lack of sleep, mental overload and emotional confusion have all reached a bit of a climax, which in turn led to me crying on a packed train on […]

Another impossibly-fast ten days have passed, and there is now just a week and a half left of school until we have seven weeks of freedom – yay! We are all extremely tired (and grumpy along with it), but these moments of sunshine in between the storm clouds are keeping us going…       […]

We are halfway through the year.  Six months have passed that quite frankly I cannot wait to forget.  It truly has been one of the hardest and most stressful times of my life – equal to battling anorexia and right up there with the very rocky patch my husband and I had a few years back. It is summer […]

Another busy ten days that seem to have flown by. We’re now counting down the days until the summer holidays (3 weeks left of school, then seven whole weeks of fun with my girls – yay!) and have plenty of plans for exciting things to do over the coming months. Time as a family is […]

It’s Father’s Day today. My first one without my Dad. Well, I say that.  Technically it’s not.  I’m not really sure if I’ve actually ever spent Father’s Day with my Dad or not.  Ever since I was little the arrangement was that I went to stay with him every other weekend, and that continued until I was 14 or 15 years […]
