Welcome to my blog!

I'm a thirty something (OK I'm 40 in October) mum of three children, aged 16, 7 and 2.

I work part-time for a Business Start Up initiative & I have a part-time photography business - Freckles Photography, which keeps me busy, and my passion alive.

As an avid reader of other people's blogs I thought I had better get cracking with mine so I can record some memories of our family life, which is flying by at an astonishingly fast pace. I also like to blog about my other hobbies of reading, knitting & other crafts.

I'm PR friendly, so if you think you have something I would be interested in reviewing, please drop me a line.

We won! Nurture Store Sunflower Club

Last week the lovely Nurturestore.co.uk were running a competition to kick start their Sunflower Club. Today I heard that we were one of the lucky ten to win a packet of sunflower seeds.

It’s hard to believe in this grim and snowy week that Spring is just around the corner, but come March we will be planting our seeds and keeping a track of their progress.

If you want to join the club visit Cathy who has this to say:

“Right through the Spring and Summer we’ll be offering lots of ideas for you to do at home to help your children have fun and learn along with us. We’ll use the sunflowers to learn about plants, animals, seasons, where food come from and how things grow, maths and science. And we’ll let the plants inspire us to be creative with art, crafts, words and songs. There’s no obligation to join in all the activities but you’re sure to find ideas your child will enjoy”.
