June
A little while ago I wrote a post about relearning how to knit again. Well I got stuck in and I have now completed the back of the jumper. Yipee! I had forgotten how theraputic knitting is and also how addictive it is. My OH was very kind whilst we were on holiday and took [...]

You know that thrilling feeling when you see ‘your’ child, in a book or on TV, or in a film. That was me this week when I finally got to watch Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. The star of the film is an 11 year old boy with Asperger’s – just like my son – [...]

The long-lost days of City Wife and Country Wife

June
The best bit of BritMums Live last weekend was meeting writer Kate Morris for the first time. Actually, I felt I already knew her, because five years ago Easy Living magazine asked us to write a pair of blogs. Kate, a sassy journalist living in trendy west London, was City Wife, while I, then living [...]
Being a ‘yes’ mummy

June
I actually wrote this post 2 months ago, but for some reason I stuck it in the ‘drafts’ folder. This evening I read a post written by Kate at Wit Wit Woo and felt prompted to go back to mine. So this is a declaration to try harder. A promise to my kids, that somehow [...]

The roundabout of parenthood

So we asked the geneticist if there were any chances that another child would have the same genetic condition and the response we got was to wait a few more years to see if they have found anything. They wouldn’t say whether there was or wasn’t a chance of it happening again. Like this?Read more… [...]

She has gone through every single test that can be performed to look at all of the possible syndromes and conditions they know about and they still come up blank.So we asked the geneticist if there were any [...]

I remember it so well as it was around 3am and I made my way outside the hospital to phone my dad. The whole time I was on the phone I can remember thinking ‘I am coming home either without my wife or without my child’. This is the one thing that still sticks with [...]
