I can’t imagine a better home for these two prin

I can’t imagine a better home for these two prints than this dreamy Summer house at casa de @life_of_isatu Can I have a Summer house please?? Can I also have a large freezer room to go and stand in sporadically through this week? How are you keeping cool in the heatwave? 📷 by @life_of_isatu Tap to shop prints. #shopthelovelydrawer

Recently Maggie turned to me and said, ‘mummy I really want to be a mermaid when I grow up.’ Ahhh my legacy…that’s exactly what I wanted when I was a little girl. I mean I really wanted it and prayed to God it would happen 😂 I spent 90% of my childhood pretending to be a mermaid, drawing them or watching films about them (anyone love splash 1 and 2?) Maggie was very excited when I had an idea of how to make her a mermaid and I was excited to find a use for some old Amazon packaging. #maggiemysweetheart

Well it’s safe to say that Lars’ second birthd

Well it’s safe to say that Lars’ second birthday was much more fun than his first! It was construction themed through and through and now he has a ride on digger, tool kit, tool belt, dumper truck and drill! Guess he’ll be doing all the DIY and heavy lifting when we move house then 😉 Also can we take a moment to appreciate Grandma’s mad cake skills! #littlelarsespen

Big week! I finished up my last CBT session so now

Big week! I finished up my last CBT session so now I’m kind of scarily therapy free, for now. Granny and Grandad are away for the week and Nick’s bro moved out so we’ve had our first period of just the four of us since November last year! We may have finally found a house to rent (I say that tentatively) but I’m sending up big prayers that all the document checks go smoothly. Thursday also marks a year since one of the hardest days of my life. Oh and Lars turns two on Friday!

Felt like these two needed to take up some space on my grid. Both incredibly stubborn, both master of the looks of pure disgust, both very accomplished at tantrums but when they play imaginary games with each other it’s absolute gold. Add in hand holding and giggling and I’m on the floor, melting. Oh and when one of them hurts themselves and the other one comes to kiss it better…I can’t 😭 I’ll stop. #maggiemysweetheart #littlelarsespen

1 year since things got so bad that I had an uncontrollable panic attack and Nick made the decision to ship us all back to his parents for an undetermined amount of time. In my warped mind I thought that two weeks would suffice but then it turned into nearly 3 months because I honestly couldn’t cope. We only moved back to London properly for two months before moving out of our flat for good and back to my in laws (poor things). 1 year on we’re back where we started which is kind of depressing but I’m forever grateful for the space God provided for us this time last summer in order to get help and gain clarity. In a sea of darkness upon darkness it’s often hard to see God’s goodness and gentle guiding hand but he lead us out of an extremely harmful situation and it felt terrifying at the time but boy am I glad he did.

What a rollercoaster of a weekend for this little

What a rollercoaster of a weekend for this little lad. He was the smiliest angel child on Saturday but Friday eve and Sunday were terrifying. Not sure if he’s just beginning to immerse himself in toddler tantrums or what but he’s if we offer a cuddle or compassion in those meltdowns he screams ‘NO. NEVER!’…and then walks out the room, giving us evils, slamming the door, shouting ‘GO AWAY!’ Are you nearly 2 or nearly 15? I can’t tell you how many head boo boos he’s sustained over the last few days from hitting it against things in utter rage. We’ve certainly always had two kids with very hearty tempers but wow, just wow! Any one else riding this wave? #littlelarsespen
