In our house stars are extremely meaningful; I look to the brightest star every night before I go to bed and I just know somewhere by that bright star is my boy. I guess when you've experienced a significant loss like I did you cling on to "something" that can relate to them, for some… Continue reading Greater Skies – Review
Lapland Mailroom – Review

Its so much easier with all the latest technologies available to keep the magic of Christmas alive and its clear in… Continue reading Lapland Mailroom – Review
Baby Loss Awareness Week 2020
For 5 years I have supported BLAW, or tried to. I have a habit of getting very overwhelmed with the things others do to raise awareness and end up feeling like I haven't done enough, like once again I've failed Jason for not doing "more" and I end up giving up and really only remembering… Continue reading Baby Loss Awareness Week 2020
Doughlicious Gourmet Cookie Dough – Review
I love baking, it's something i've enjoyed doing for many years but being a busy, full time working Mum/Wife/Sister/Daughter/Friend/Influencer means I rarely get time to even think about baking let alone doing it.

Goodbye Speedy
A car is just a car - until it isn't. For me my car isn't just a sign of my freedom and independence but it holds so much more meaning than that. I don't tend to get sentimental towards objects very often, I'm not a horder and once something has lived it's life or run… Continue reading Goodbye Speedy
Teddo Play
Being a qualified HLTA (higher level teaching assistant) and a SEN support assistant for the past 12 years means a lot of the play I do with Ellie is very structured and has some element of learning to it. It's never intentional but even she has learnt that Mummy plays school and Daddy plays with… Continue reading Teddo Play

She packed everything she needed; pyjamas, clothes,hair brush, toothbrush, DVD player, night light, 2 teddies and she was ready. She also wanted to… Continue reading Sleepover
