2011 May | Freckles Family

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.

She was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar* or Two Soups?

Posted in Family

*well not exactly a cocktail bar – more a wonky pub, due to mining subsidence, but it does great home made food! My first born has reached a new milestone this weekend. Not content with piling on the ‘make Mum feel ancient’ vibes due to being *cough* sixteen *cough* on Wednesday, she also started her more »
