“Let’s always have fun when we can” if that’s not how to build a life (we like) then I don’t know what is. I loved seeing the snow through you and your kids eyes x
LOVE being here and love to see you back. I was so sorry to read all the pre-adoption horridness, but am SO glad it's all worked out now. As someone who cares a lot about what other people think (and adjusts their behaviour accordingly), your writing inspires me to be braver and to be bolder. I hadn't realised how much I'd missed it - although I have read all of the fiction of course! Okay, I'll stop writing now as I am at risk of sounding like a way-too-keen Hinge date.
This is off-topic but I read we date with the wrong thing in mind (“do I fancy them?”) when we should date with VALUES in mind and do just to say re caring what people think etc and trying to be braver and bolder… we have the same values! So together: onwards 🩵
I very nearly said no at one point...but then headed out and have got the cutest video of me and my daughter whizzing down the hill on a sledge, giggling away. Yes to more fun!
Oh this is so lovely!! Your last photo made me laugh - I imagined him throwing his little snowball at you and then getting walloped by your giant snowball like something out of a cartoon!
Beautiful! It's all too easy as parents with an agenda and a to do list as long as we are tall to turn down these opportunities and make excuses. Love it, moments to be cherished x

You’re so right. I’m proud to have recognised the invitation he was extending me (eventually!)
This is bloody gorgeous. 🩷❄️
Ty!!
It sadly didn’t settle in London but my goodness I loved reading this. The snow never ceases to amaze me as a southern hemisphere girl ❄️
I honestly didn’t think it was going to settle either - but I’m pretty sure it was my kid’s pure hope that did it!!
Willeddddd it to happen. Love it!
Wonderful! The whole world feels a bit magic when it snows ❄️☃️
Especially if you get up early to be first footprints!!
