A couple of weeks ago I had the idea to take Lincoln Go-Karting for his birthday and mentioned it to Jamie who said we should make it a surprise so we began the ruse. The fact that she is leaving to go home for three weeks on Friday meant wanting to spend this weekend all […]
Although Grandad preferred to go to a funeral rather than celebrate his birthday, we made up for it by taking a cake and singing him happy birthday too!
I got a “Good news, you’ve won a prize!” email this morning from the Lottery and I had that. Oh my gosh I wonder how much, 30 second feeling while I found and opened the app and logged in. I had actually won £30 the biggest win I have had for years. Although I only […]

Jamie arrived home from her pastoral meeting where she is hoping to become a preacher, I was in the garden and as she walked towards me she was beaming. She looked happier than I can ever remember with a smile that was uncontrollable. She proceeded to explain how she had received really great feedback and […]
A short week helped both Reagan and Lincoln’s transition into school routine again. Reagan had her breakfast with the headteacher for volunteering at the library which was really great to be recognised for. Lincoln came and informed us that he has been chosen as a school ambassador and will represent the school later this month. […]
