Today’s reading was Matthew 26.14-25. God has been speaking to me through it about Betrayal. I have a blogpost in drafts about it but will add to it later as don’t want to rush something so sensitive. I have loved today. After a week of feeling poorly & plans being changed. I had a gorgeous […]
Today was going to be baking but instead I had time to paint! Little Lion napped in the afternoon so I got a bit of time..just under an hour..it didn’t feel long! I’m not an artist and so needed help! I watched a simple Acrylic Paint video on YouTube for inspiration. Mine looks nothing like […]
I have been encouraged by a friend to spend the 40days of lent choosing to be creative. I believe this will be a challenge but also freeing. There is creativity in all of us..so sometimes to get the chance to be looking for it is helpful. For me, I can’t sew,knit, draw, paint..I can just […]

“Imagine if we’d not listened to God..we wouldn’t have our son. Yet can’t imagine life without him” The words of my husband just before he fell asleep. For me a statement like that sends my brain far too wild to then be able to sleep! Yes, gosh imagine if we had said no or ignored […]

My Lion is now 9months (I know! Already!?), he has been a bit poorly over the last few weeks. Saturday night on one of his coughing episodes I went into his room to soothe him back to sleep. I needed him to not know I was there so I was glad it was dark so […]
