Hello everyone, I hope you had a lovely weekend. It’s time for me to sit and write my weekly blog post about some of the things which have made me happy – my Monday Happy List. We’ve had my sister visiting all week which has been lovely. We had an epic day in London exploring one of the BFG Dream Jar Trails and spent lots of time drinking tea and eating cake. We made the Lemon and Poppy Seed cake from the Cath Kidston Teatime, book which was delicious. There was a trip to Hobbycraft too for more craft supplies…

After 2 weeks of early starts I’m looking forward to a…

Last week was the first full week my husband spent out of hospital and it was good to have him home. To give him a chance to recuperate the kids spent the week at Super Camp. I was a little apprehensive how they would get on but they loved it. They did a multi-activity week and came home happy but tired every day. Because the children were busy we were able to enjoy a little date during the day. We went to the cinema to see Jason Bourne, I love Matt Damon and this was a great fast-paced action film.…

Hello everyone. Another extraordinary week in my household. We started the week with my husband being discharged from hospital but unfortunately he was back in within 24 hours. I’ve had another busy week juggling hospital visits and childcare but I’m pleased to say my husband is back home again. I’m not sure how so much was achieved with so much going on in the last 7 days. My 6 year old had his final Beavers session of the term. He received 4 new badges for his jumper from all the activities they have been taking part in – these are…
