    Learning to be brave.

    Learning to be brave is a process, find out how I was a reminded of this during a family walk.

  • The big clear out.

    The big clear out.

    There was very nearly not going to be a post this week. I couldn’t seem to formulate anything. I have a list of half ideas and a block of half started posts that haven’t gone any where. And that is ok, I know it is, just like I know it’s ok if I give myself…

  • Love.

    Love.

    We have never known an Easter like this. An Easter where we cannot gather together physically or have friends over to our home to celebrate this time of year. There is real fear and anxiety over the corona virus and its long term impact. We are all in the same situation but are facing different…

  • What a month!

    What a month!

    The longest month of the year has officially ended YAY! Officially we know there are 31 days but, oh my word, do they feel longer. Especially when you are crawling towards payday. And if I am honest, this January has felt more like the world has gone “it’s 2020! let’s get this year really started.”…

  • New year, new me? Not quite.

    New year, new me? Not quite.

    Have you managed to keep your new years resolution? Or have you forgotten your resolve and that commitment has already fallen by the wayside? Or do you not even bother? It is a strange thing how every year we make promise to change something about ourselves? To “improve” or “let go” or do something crazy…

  • When you feel invisible.

    When you feel invisible.

  • Recap.

    Recap.

    So much has happened in such little time. I did not believe my mother when she told me that as you get older, time begins to slip through  your fingers and when you have kids, the years are so much shorter. Time flies, as they say. Still, I can happily say, that I have begun…

  • God is Good.

    God is Good.

    There are moments in our walk with Jesus, when he just makes things so beautiful that you cannot help but look up to heaven and smile. When your heart is full of joy and there are literally no words to express what is it actually happening in your heart. The moment when all of the…

  • The art of storytelling.

    The art of storytelling.

    I am in the middle of editing and re-writing my story. There have been a couple of moments where I wanted to cry, to pull my hair out or just completely delete the story. What stops me is the fact that my story is no longer in me, it is living and breathing on the…

  • A much needed break.

    A much needed break.

    When we were preparing to move God told me something. That this year would be my year of rest. With everything going on, packing, moving, living temporarily in caravan, battling solicitors to speed up the purchase of our new home, finally getting into that home, getting the children into new schools, my partner starting his new…
