I’ve got a 4 month post coming because I think it is time to stop counting in weeks. But one last time. He’s 17 weeks and he is so big and so changed and so different and utterly adorable. In the rare moments when he does stop feeding, what he likes more than anything is […]
And now she is 14.
My big girl, my biggest girl, is 14. Max and I have spent quite a lot of the evening saying this in awe. 14. Wow. And she looks so beautiful in that picture too, growing into the young woman she is becoming. She feels like a young woman, another adult in the house really. A […]
Klimt's The Kiss.
Let’s move on to something a little nicer. Remember we were looking at this? Over Friday and the weekend we thought we would have a go at a representation of this picture in…. Hama beads! And here is the finished article. Rather a good piece of collaborative art we thought 🙂 What I loved about […]
So that was nice.
This week has been an interesting one and rather unpleasant too. Firstly I managed to put my back out standing up out of a chair, then I discover I have nits… And worse ONLY I have nits. So I must have got them at cybher. Ha. That’s taking free gifts too far. Then today I […]
And then came the rainbows…
I remember writing a long time ago that I knew one day posts about Freddie on here would fade away. It was the early days then, right at the beginning – but I knew even then that the desperate pain and grief would not always be something I could find and write new feelings about… […]
What I really learned at Cybher.
Last weekend I went to a conference designed for bloggers. I’ve been before to similar (as blogged previously when I went to BlogCamp and Cybermummy) but CybHer was designed specifically in response (I think) to some people feeling dissatisfied with Cybermummy being a little, shall we say, superficial. I sat next to Sian (CybHer’s erm.. […]
Klimt inspired art.
I needed a shove today to get creative (actually, I needed several shoves just to get upright 🙁 ) and thankfully Maggie from Red Ted Art came through with her new Kids Get Arty linky. As an aside, Maggie did a lovely guest post for me on MuddlePuddle the other week, which is a really […]
Wibble wobble, all fall down.
Sometimes being a home educator is completely brilliant. Sometimes is just one extra thing to beat myself with. Right now baby Ben is asleep in bed, which is a good thing as last night I somehow put my back out and, despite costly trip to the osteopath this morning, I can barely move at all. […]
Hard won happy.
It was not possible to overcome the wanting. The wanting brought a foolish mistake and a serious error of judgement. The error of judgement brought our world crashing down. That crashed ended in a room and £30 a week and arguments and learning to talk, learning to forgive, learning to be grown ups. Learning to […]
A funny thing happened on the way home from Cybher.
London did not behave as expected yesterday. Despite my reservations, it was delightful in the morning, light, airy and quiet and full. It reminded me of the city I lived in once that I really loved. Kings Cross, in its new, glorious sparkling form was radiant. I had a grin on my face. People smiled […]
