I’ll be turning 24 this year, and so I thought an interesting post would be 24 things I’ve learnt by 24. So here we go! Being a parent is hard. I don’t think you’re ever truly prepared for how hard life can be as a parent. Having down days and …
So, from the name of this post, you’re probably thinking I’m going to complain about being a mum to a little boy. Well, you’d be wrong! The problem with being the mama of a boy, is the expectations and gender specifics pushed on parents and the little boy. One of …
I’d never considered the fact that I was ‘estranged’ from one of my parents. I knew that we were no longer on speaking terms, and that I didn’t consider them a parent anymore. It wasn’t until I read this post that I went, “holy shit I’m estranged from one of …
It’s become a bit of a tradition for us now to go to Latitude every year, whether it’s for a day or the whole weekend. Mark and I went for the whole weekend in 2017, which is when we got engaged (and little did we know, Grayson was also chilling …
