A letter to our little ones

The sun sets on another day of isolation. The nights are becoming lighter but the dainty glow is being shut out by the shields of our homes. There is still a shady overcast of information to when this will all be over but while we adults strain the nerves of our anxiety from fear andContinue reading “A letter to our little ones”

Twenty five

Without trying to babble on too much, I have to confess my thoughts on turning 25. I need to be completely honest with you all, every year I CRY. I cry at turning another year older. I understand it’s out of my control and that I should just embrace another birthday but I have aContinue reading “Twenty five”

Growing into motherhood

I was going to start this post referencing it ‘The power of motherhood’. I wrote up to say that there isn’t a manual or step by step guide to motherhood. Which would of been a lie, as I googled ‘the power of motherhood’. To my surprise, there on the very top page were the wordsContinue reading “Growing into motherhood”

Mum guilt

What is mum guilt? Why the ‘F’ are we experiencing this guilt? The guilt starts from the day we find out we’re pregnant. You’re a hormonal crazy lady who is seconds from ripping your partner to shreds or breaking down, into your ice cream cone because you didn’t get given a flake in your 99!Continue reading “Mum guilt”

Stroke- My granddad’s story.

So this post is a little different to the usual ones I publish. I hoped that if I could get my grandad’s story out, it might just help someone else. My grandad suffered a mini stroke due to a blood vessel being blocked in his throat. This is currently being controlled by medication. For meContinue reading “Stroke- My granddad’s story.”

Last minute trip

For the bank holiday Monday we went to Minehead. This was completely a last minute decision. It was around 4 in the afternoon and my partner went “if you want to go out, get ready and let’s go” a part of me was being far too lazy to drag myself outside in front of aContinue reading “Last minute trip”

I’m walking with my sunshine

I like to think back to when I was pregnant with a big round belly feeling the flutters and kicks of my little twinkle toes repositioning from side to side, jabbing a foot in to a couple of organs as he gets comfy for the night and I would lie down, imagining what it wouldContinue reading “I’m walking with my sunshine”

Me myself and no time.

Have you ever wondered what Parents have in common? Time. I am more than positive that every single parent have used these words…”what did I do in my spare time”. Once that little sproglet enters the world, you don’t remember life without them. It’s the strangest feeling. They may have only been in your lifeContinue reading “Me myself and no time.”

Roman’s First birthday

I’m back! I haven’t posted for a few months, but I’m hoping to give myself more time to focus on my blog and to be a little more motivated. I wanted to discuss Romans first birthday party. There were a lot of emotions involving his big day. I’m not sure if it was the thoughtContinue reading “Roman’s First birthday”
