Did you know June is Sands awareness month?
Did you know 15 babies die before, during and after birth in the UK every day?
I never believed it would happen to me. I never believed babies die, I'd heard of babies who had died, I knew people who had lost their baby but really didn't think I'd be one of them.
Jason was born at 35 weeks, fully formed, perfect and so tiny at just 3lbs 6ozs. He lived and he breathed for a short time before he left us. Living every day without him doesn't get any easier, it's a pain and a love that will never go away.
I miss my little man every day and always wonder who he'd have been now, who he'd have looked like or what his personality would have been. I have mum guilt every day that Ellie doesn't know her big brother, doesn't have him to play with.
June is @sandscharity awareness month.

This morning we took our @limmys_kids magnetic tiles in to the garden and I asked Ellie what she wanted to make.
She followed the picture and we counted how many shapes she needed. She recognised square, triangle and even attempted to say parallelogram ๐
These are also really good for learning patterns, Ellie was remembering she needed square, triangle, square, triangle etc. There are so many learning possibilities with these.
She made a rocket and flew it around the garden, it of course landed on Mars where she then pretended to be an alien with 3 eyes ๐
Where would you go if you had a rocket?
