I will be honest. I have found this lockdown the hardest of them all. Having spoken to friends and family it seems the feeling is mutual. The rain, the dark evenings, the relentlessness of it all. The pressures of home school. It has all felt too much too frequently. An adventure in the outdoors has … Read more
Cookie cutters and water beads, and saving my own sanity. Gosh none of this is easy right now is it? Staying at home has lots of positives and time together is a special thing. But with winter and some rough weather, the pressures of home school, jobs, businesses, the house (or the dump as it … Read more
Gosh I love Christmas. There is such a sense of nostalgia and excitement. It takes me back to my childhood, I absolutely adore the wonder it sparks in my own boys, and I just love every single thing about it. Joy; it is all about the joy. It is also such a wonderful time to … Read more

Also involving time with friends and family, halloween inspired giggles and frights (I am, it transpires, a bit of a wimp), long walks, rainy days, singing your heart out, and snacks on demand. Obviously. It took me a while to get my head around the fact that it was half term. I am sure we … Read more
