I think. I should write bigger and better about both of these but today is not a day I’m finding easy, so I can’t be bothered. But they both relate to good home education moments, so for the record, here they are. The first was a trip to the Cambridge Botanical Gardens with a group. […]
Na….Na….Na….Oh!
I’m trying terribly hard to keep up to date with this but I’m failing completely on writing up the days out we have; we’ve settled into a rhythm of plenty of edu-lising (educational socialising!) with our etc groups ad they are great. The only problem with them for me is that whatever stage of healing […]
On being six and grief struck
I want to talk about Josie. I want to write so much about her but the things that I have to say make me want to weep and stick in my throat and tie my fingers. She’s six now. Last week, on Bonfire Night, we had presents and a party with a couple of local […]
Sporting Catch Up.
I didn’t get round to blogging the last competition, partly from lack of time and partly because neither of them were very happy with how they did. Somehow it seems pointless t try and big up something that they don’t feel a sense of achievement about, even though they had nothing to worry about at […]
Assorted crafting.
Last weeks cloaks didn’t really have masses of time for me teaching dress making, seamstress-ing or costume design but Maddy did get a crash course in pinning, which will no doubt stand her in good stead at some point. There was a very small amount of fun with this (if I’m honest not terribly good) […]
Josie is a Star!
Well, okay, I was supposed to upload a picture of me; but really Josie the Titchy Witch is much more fun to look at anyway and if anyone needs their own laptop in this house, it’s Josie. After all, a girl has Penguins to play with and there is precious little time for doing so […]
Yesterday was mostly good
I don’t have photos. (I will take some!) However, after a morning of normals while I did a few work related jobs and the girls occupied themselves sensibly, getting on with things from their lists. Amelie and Josie then went back to a game they’ve been playing for a while; Amelie was “not well”, coughing […]
If there were a way to switch it off I would
Last night I dreamt about Freddie. We were a few months on and he was still in hospital and I was trying to split myself between him and the girls and working and everything else in my life and not doing a good job at all. And people kept asking me how he was doing […]
In between two weekends.
I do wish I could remember to blog more frequently about life, rather than about death. B- Must try harder. I spend a lot of time worrying about life, trying to keep things right for everyone and annoying people by going on about it, but not perhaps quite enough time living and doing it. Right. […]
More than a pair of socks
Here’s a nice picture of Freddie’s blanket. I made it big enough for him to sleep under as he grew – but he never did. But it has been such a comfort blanket – for me. I read the other day that an average pair of knitted socks has 34,000 stitches. I think this had […]
