1st Birthday Blunders – The difference between being Martha and being Mary …

On 31st July 2015, my little bundle of joy was born … and it has officially been almost 13 months since then!   Sunday 31st July 2016 marked one year since Phoenix first saw the light in the world – and obviously, as his mother, I wanted to do something incredibly special to commemorate that. Therefore, what better way to do that than to have a party surrounded by his family and friends!   For…

I guess that’s just the heart and soul slowly filling the void as it has been a long time since that pivotal moment took place. Today marks the 11th anniversary of my mothers passing away from cancer – so this is why I want to write this particular blog post today. I want to share…

So, while I was browsing facebook today, I came across this wee video and I just felt that it was too important not to share! Please have a look … :) Believe it or not, I actually relate to almost all of these women to an extent. Although it hasn’t affected me too much, it’s hard not to feel judged sometimes (even if the one judging…
