Wow, what a busy few days we’ve had. Ben has had his first night away from home, I’ve had my first day fending for myself in the real world with a baby (!), we’ve had baby jabs and gym competitions and goodness knows what. And we are still dealing with the hopeless reality of BT […]
Qualifications in life.
I always thought that when the girls started to get older, the responsibility of exams and qualifications would be the thing that weighed heaviest on me. When you decide to home educate, there are some very obvious milestones that loom up as possible stumbling blocks (did I mix metaphors there or just park some slightly […]
Win a BigJigs Picnic!
When BigJigs Toys suggested we run a competition with them (disclosure being that we sell lots of BigJigs on PlayMerrily and therefore have a business interest with them!) I thought that with the habitual lovely weather of April approaching, a Picnic Hamper of wooden toy food would be fun. So I’m sitting here getting ready […]
Remembering Freddie
2 years since we said goodbye.
Thank you and please.
I’ve had so much encouragement and support through this blog over the years and none more than in the last two years and the last two months. If ever there was a roller coaster of a life, we’ve lived it. Two years ago I thought I would never be happy again. It’s a different sort […]

Competition Winners (Hama & Djeco)
The winner of the Djeco £30 voucher for PlayMerrily is Rollercoaster Mum, who was picked at random by number shout from Amelie. The Hama Beads were won by Firefly, who has a Freddy – correct weight was 940g so she was closest! Get in touch via the contact page 🙂
Test post.
Move along. Nothing to see here. Well okay. Apart from a very cute baby being a flickr tester for me.
Think happy thoughts.
Very important to remember that even with very bad days indeed, things are still better than they were. No Freddie but Ben is much better than no Freddie and no Ben. ‘Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind. Or forgotten. We’re broken, but still good.’ Oh, the wisdom of Disney 😉
Finished it Friday: Crochet Storage Pot
Really and truly I’m mid making some little cardigans for Ben, Nina and Kit but now that Ben is properly into cloth nappies I needed something for putting his terry bum wipes into. I’ve got an awful lot of felting yarn, so I thought I really should have another go at making a pot. So […]
