Christmas is our favourite time of year. Just the sight of a bauble and I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. We spend the whole of December dancing and singing to Christmas songs, eating our weight in quality street and crackers, and cuddling up on the sofa watching Elf on repeat. Christmas Day also happens … Continue reading It’s the most wonderful time of the year… unless you’re co-parenting
Art Guy
His pictures had shown him to be very handsome, with jet black hair and bright blue eyes. He obviously wasn’t one for a ‘selfie’ and his photos were mostly of him travelling and out with friends.

Snapchat Filters & Dating Apps 🤥
I could look like an actual turd and a Snapchat filter would make me look stunning. I sometimes wish I had a little pair of fluffy ears and a pink nose I could wear on the school run...

The Part Time Parent
At first I hated that I’d become a ‘part-time’ parent. I was used to having my babies every day and when their Dad and I broke up, I wasn’t prepared for the fact that we would now have days apart.
