Today is #internationalwheelchairday A day to knowledge that having the right wheelchair can enable and empower a wheelchair user. This is one of my favourite photos from our holiday in Edinburgh last year. It shows my family moving down The Royal Mile, each travelling independently. Obviously I’m at the rear trying to catch up! One… Continue reading International Wheelchair Day
Gosh! It’s gone cold hasn”t it? Suddenly autumn arrived and now it feels like we are rapidly heading into winter. All around me are reminders that Christmas will soon be here, closely followed by the beginning of another year… But first, there has been October and November! I have decided to join these 2 months… Continue reading Autumn / Winter Tales
It’s mid-October, there’s drizzly rain outside, the temperature has definitely dropped and the leaves are finally changing colour and falling to the ground. Autumn has arrived.

So, I’m a little late sharing last month’s escapades and endeavors because at the beginning of this month (May) it was Cerys’ birthday! I cannot believe that tiny 3lb 3oz baby, lying in an incubator, is now a sassy, creative, fun loving 20 year old! There may have been some bumps along the road, but… Continue reading April – Springtime Fun
