Recently, Jelly Bean’s movements have become a lively spectacle in my belly. His kicks are stronger, and he seems to play a little game of push-and-kick whenever a hand rests on my bump. It’s almost like he’s eager to interact, especially if the owner of the hand engages him in conversation. I’m keen for Little … Read more
Next Monday will be Lillie’s first day at Primary School and whilst I can’t guarantee that I won’t cry as I say goodbye to her, I’m feeling surprisingly good about it at the moment. My little girl is growing up so fast and she CAN’T WAIT to get to school. School Ready She is so … Read more
