I’m fairly open about what’s going on in our little world most of the time. But sometimes things happen behind the scenes that I choose to keep private for a while before I feel ready to share them. Things that are deeply personal, things that tap into old fears and stories, things that need a…
I have been dropping the ball on so many things recently, and keeping up to date with Project Happy posts has slipped down the list of priorities out of necessity. The girls were so very ready for October half term – they were desperatly in ned of a rest and some proper family time after…

Ordinary moments, ordinary magic. September rain and sunsets and snuggling away the winter germs… little pockets of happiness from the last couple of weeks.
