From Kent To Cornwall

My Achievements: We've all done things in life that we are proud of achieving!  So i'm going to share my top ten with you: 1. becoming a qualified nursery nurse 2. shaving both sides of my head to donate it to charity ( the little princess trust ) 3. Becoming a mother not once but three times 4. Moving to Cornwall 5. Starting up a blog again 6. Teaching myself to french plait ( maybe small but makes my daughters day when i can do elsa hair! )  7. Learning to drive 8. Getting a new job 9. writing a book  10. bettering my photography  These may be small achievements, but it all counts this year has been one of our best, to finally be living our dream feels amazing!   So this small list, to me makes me proud and reminds me that if i just go for it i can do it!  Em x

Life can be hard and can throw you some big curve balls every know and then! Its busy and chaotic even with out three kids in toe, if i knew being an adult would be this hard i wouldn't have grown up!  Making a bit of time for yourself is not selfish but bloody much needed!  it doesn't have to be anything over dramatic either, my little me time treat is a Friday night pamper. Cue the candles and romantic music! ( ha ) once the kids are fed, washed and happy ( not trying to kill each other ) in bed I'll jump in the shower and use my all time faves!  Imperial leather has always been a go to for me, at a none ridiculous price but still great quality, i'll always look for these when i'm shopping.  There new limited edition range grabbed me straight away ( i'm a sucker for anything with flamingos on ) and does it smell AMAZZING!!  The unicorn one was more having my 5 year old daughter in mind, so I've not really had a look in...

Most of the time i just try to wing my way through life like every bloody day and being a parent there's no handbooks to guide you in the right direction, because there is no right and wrong, I just try to bring my three humans up as best as i can, to be kind, caring, respectful, peaceful humans in a crazy world just trying to get through!  Don't you feel though that sometimes it all seems like one big competition? Like who has the cleanest house, who has the biggest following, who's been to the best places, who drive the best car and so on... Don't get me wrong i'd love a larger following on Instagram but hey ho, maybe one day. I think its to easy to copy other people, just because there telling you how "perfect" there life is and all that crap doesn't mean its real! Bloody hell i mean i try to keep on top of the washing, the cleaning but lets face it i'm never going to live in a spotless house, and i can't afford the latest mobil...

THIS IS ME. I may not be a model, i'm not a superstar, i'm not skinny or beautiful, but you know something? This is me, its taken me a long time to feel happy and confident in myself and i think i'm finally there. Here i am with my mum tum, my stretch marks, bags under my eyes, wobbly bits these my be my flaws but i don't care because I'm happy, i have carried three babies, I've fed them, I've lost sleep, I've eaten cake because i like it but these flaws don't define me. I have a man that man that love's me for me that'd held me when I've cried because i didn't think i was good enough, who told me i was, that if i wanted to i could do anything i put my mind to. So you now what YOU are beautiful, we all are, in our own way, flaws and all. Embracing them, excepting them is the first step to self love and its a step we all need to take. I'm beautiful to the ones who love me, i am super women to my children, a beautiful w...
