A letter to my children.

Image
A letter to my children, To you who showed me what love really is, who made my heart grow three times the size it was. You've grown me into the women i am today, the love have have for the three of you is like no other. You fill my world with chaos, but i wouldn't want it any other way. When i held you in my arms, i knew i would give my last breath for you, to promise to protect you for always. To cuddle you when your happy or sad, to play silly games with. You my darlings are my sunshine in the darkest of days, you give me a reason to wake up. My bond with you each is different, we all love to do different things. Yet those family days we have filled with memories can not be beat.  I'm so proud of you all, the humans you have grown in to You all have your off days but that's just life. I'm proud of me too for doing my best for you all, don't change my darlings.  Always be proud of what you achieve, always be yourself, stand up for what you believe...

Why i started blogging again.

I use to do beauty blogging, when the boys was small. Something i really enjoyed doing and i was lucky enough to work with so lovely cosmetic brands, to which i always gave honest reviews on the products that they sent me. One thing always stopped me from being an amazing beauty blogger like some of the talented bloggers out there, and it was being able to actually apply make in way that stood out and showed a talent. So i gave it up, i didn't blog for ages after that family life was what i was all about. I slipped in to being a mum and nothing else. Then with moving down to Cornwall and the kids being that much older and Mark going off to work every day, i needed something for me. So i decided to start it all up again, but this time it incorporated my family, and our adventures. Along with things the kids enjoyed doing, so here i am.  My blog is not huge, and not well know but its that little place i can come to share things. To share my experiences, my fails as a pa...

Collective Dairy Review

Image
I'm always happy to try new products, and after contacting the collective dairy who kindly sent us some coupons to use to redeem against there range we was excited to see what it was all about. A company that believes in using only the best ingredients in there products, to help deliver nothing but the finest tasting goods. With no nasty's, Veterinarian friendly, a source of protein and full with live cultures. Sounds good a'y?! Selling a wide variety of goodies, from yogurt, kids yogurts to kefir and pro-yo.  We headed of to our local Tescos, vouchers in hand ready to try these goodness pots and pouches. We redeemed our vouchers against there awesome kids range called "suckies" being a busy mum of three and a pack lunch pro ( i like to think i am ) i normally always opt for "spoon yogurts" in there lunch boxes, i try to fill there lunches with healthy food's as well as a few treats, but the "spoon yogurts" seem to spiral us in to ...

Sharing the love..

When i first saw those two little lines almost 10 years ago, a surge of worry, panic, and a bag full of emotions hit me, we had not planned to start a family, plus we had only been together a few months. I really didn't know what to do, being honest i thought this little "thing" growing inside me would be the end of what seemed to be a perfect relationship. What did i do? Well i didn't say a word, for a good week i kept it to myself, trying to work out what would be the best decision, if i could raise a child on my own. How wrong i was, after finally gathering the courage to tell my boyfriend, a weight was lifted he was over the moon. Our relationship had moved pretty fast, but you know when you just feel like you was supposed to find this other human, the right to your left well that was us. With a 13 year age gap people did talk behind our backs, " oh she's just a fling" " They won't settle down" " that relationship won...
