I can’t wrap my head around the last month or so… It’s been challenge after challenge. Stress after stress. The past two-three weeks have been really really shit to be honest. I feel like a failure, that I’ve let my husband, our families and our friends down. I know so many of you were rooting for us and we appreciate…
What a crazy two months it’s been! So many highs, some lows… but we power on! Before I discuss my April & May Joys, I wanted to flag that It’s Mental Health Awareness week and the topic this year is anxiety. As some may know, anxiety has affected me for many many years.

This October, we’ve had my cousin Becca’s beautiful wedding, it’s my mum’s 60th on the 12th (tomorrow), Joe and I signed up…
Hi everyone! I know it’s Christmas Eve and I’m discussing a serious topic, however, I some-what felt inspired to type this, this morning.
