Whilst enjoying the garden this week JR made a discovery, it’s his treasure. He’s Immensely proud of his treasure, so proud he made me take a photo of it. He also asked me what it is and I haven’t been able to find a definitive answer so if you know or have an idea please Continue reading →

JR has been in nursery since January 2012. He had attended term times most days since then, it was my choice to send him, I was under no obligation to take him and if we wanted a sneaky trip to Alton Towers, Legoland or somewhere equally exciting we just told them in advance he wouldn’t be in.
All that is about to change, from Thursday I will be legally required to have JR in his uniform, ready to learn and in the school playground at 8.45 every Monday – Friday during term time, with the only exception being for illness. This scares me, I feel as if I’m losing my child, and my control over what he sees, does and experiences during his formative years.
JR is a November child so will be one of if not the eldest in his class. However I still don’t feel he’s ready to be away from home without me or his daddy for 6 hours a day, 3 hours of nursery whacked him out.
However I know there is nothing I can do to stop it happening, it’s a legal requirement that he gets an education, and I for one are nowhere near clever enough, and have no where near enough patience to homeschool and with 2 other little ones at home it wouldn’t be fair on any of them. So formal school education it is!
Just beware on Thursday I may will be a blubbering emotional mess.

This morning me and La climbed into a taxi, while the boys stayed at home with Grandma, and we headed off to Russell’s Hall Hospital to see La’s dietician Cheryl. I was hopeful that they’d be happy with how she’s doing although I was pretty sure they’d still say she’s underweight. Well how wrong can Continue reading →

This week my Sunday photo is one where i was testing out my new cameras capabilities at night when my dads solar power lights came on in his back garden. I loved the detailing on the dragonflies and wondered if I’d be able to get a clear photo of them something I’ve never achieved before well here the result, no editing or filter just as I took it. Please let me know what you think!

As we have been having exceptionally good weather and they don’t get the chance very often we Continue reading →

A few weeks ago I went to a little thing called Brit Mums,Whilst I was there I tried in vain to take some good photos on my 5 year old compact camera. I didn’t get any they were all bitty and out of focus, I also had camera envy, I was envious of all the great photos everyone was getting on their DSLR’s. Now there’s no way I could afford a DSLR or even know how to use one, so I did what everyone in my situation would do I sulked, mopped, dreamed and eventually settled on getting myself a bridge camera. I’ve used my Panasonic zl20 a few times now, filling a memory card more than once,but Tuesday I went on a daytrip to Weston-Super-Mare and I finally got the chance to use my new camera to it’s my full potential. This is by far my favourite shot of the day.
