I’ve enjoyed watching their wonder and long to h

I’ve enjoyed watching their wonder and long to have some of that comforting innocence back.Last year Christmas became a time of year with really painful associations for us and what made it worse was those wounds came from church. So much of the Christmas celebrations are now tinged with grief and a reminder of the crushing awareness of the darkness in this world and how it felt and still often feels really overwhelming.I am thankful that the heavy darkness makes the story of Christmas even sweeter and fills me with deep joy rather than merriment. Light broke through the darkness in the form of a baby with the most wonderful mission. The son of God exchanged his glory for a humble stable, a humble life with the most far reaching sacrifice and eternal gift. Praise him.The people walking in darkness have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned. Isaiah 9:2Take heart for anyone that finds Christmas hard because the God of the universe, who is wholly good is near and for all who love the entire Christmas package celebrate Jesus’ Birthday because he’s the person most worthy of celebrating.

Sometimes I wonder, will I ever not feel exhausted

Sometimes I wonder, will I ever not feel exhausted this side of heaven? Trying to get over a virus that’s still lodged in my chest, whilst navigating the sleep disruption of a 2 and 4 year old alongside the nightmares that still make my sleep less than restful, feels enough as it is. Trying to find space for processing, journaling, dealing with and healing from trauma seems near impossible and wholly unappealing with no energy.
.
I recently heard this in a podcast and thought it was so true…‘It’s harder to heal from CPTSD than to actually live with the symptoms alone as in the latter, you only need to survive them. Healing on the other hand requires having to do the uncomfortable and gruelling work at the same time as surviving those symptoms’
.
Longing for that eternal rest whilst believing God is gracious to sustain in the here and now.

After a blurry week that quite honestly wasn’t o

After a blurry week that quite honestly wasn’t our finest, I wanted to make sure at the very least we kept up our annual tradition, one which I fully intend to continue as long as Maggie lets me! That girl was off the charts last night. I swear you’d have questioned whether she was on something pretty strong. We finally managed to get her to agree to go to sleep after a song she prepared for us (in her words, from a dream about a giant mince pie). She was rehearsing while we ate our dinner and then we had to take our places in the audience for a mash up of ‘we wish you a merry Christmas’ and ‘Santa Claus is coming to town’, holding on to that final note with real persistence and drama 😂 #maggiemysweetheart

Can’t believe this was a year ago! The truth is

Can’t believe this was a year ago! The truth is I wouldn’t be able to get Lars to do something like this at the moment. He’s currently dead set against wearing anything other than one particular outfit for daytime AND night time and gets VERY angry when I suggest anything else or God forbid have to wash the silly thing! The other day he got so emotional about our protests against the jumper being worn to bed, having just come out of the washing machine, that we the only way to console him was by granting his bizarre request…sleeping with said, very, damp jumper laid on top of him like a blanket 😳🤯 He’s got quirks, that’s for sure. #littlelarsespen

150mg Sertraline every day. I’m joining in with

150mg Sertraline every day. I’m joining in with @dralexgeorge ‘s #postyourpill drive to end the medication stigma because boy did I feel paralysed by that stigma when told I needed to urgently start taking antidepressants. My situation was severe and even so, I considered not getting the prescription because I was worried what people would think. I wasn’t even sure what I thought to be honest. Did I really want to be dependent on them or what about the side effects or would they make me totally numb like a robot?
These little pills quite literally saved my life so I’m glad I said yes. They don’t come close to solving everything by any means but that’s not what they’re intended for. They’ve given me the ability to function and a base to start the healing work I needed to do in therapy…and still need to do. I struggled with feeling like I’d failed and what this said about me as a person, not to mention my spiritual health but the truth is we take pills for other chronic illnesses and don’t think anything of it. If you’re wondering if you might need medication then book that doctors appointment. It may well change your life. If you’re feeling any shame attached to taking your meds then click on the hashtag and it will undoubtedly help you to feel less alone.

AD/ PR sample | Well it might be the 1st of Decemb

AD/ PR sample | Well it might be the 1st of December but there’s no sign of Christmas in this house yet and I may or may not have only bought one gift so far 😬 but I thought I’d share something totally un-Christmas related and that’s this delightful green wall in the kids bedroom. I don’t think I’ve ever shown it on here yet and if I keep on waiting until I have everything together and edited for the grand reveal of this room then it may well be a different colour by then 😉 (jokes) It’s the only paint colour in the whole house that strays from my warm tone obsession but I love it! It’s Green 01 from @lick 😍

Almost finished editing and ready to show you our

Almost finished editing and ready to show you our bedroom reveal. I’ll get there in the end but for now let me just reassure that waking up at 6am the last few days finally hit me this morning…well it could have been that or numerous nights with 3-4 wake up calls and alternating children in our bed each night. Last night Lars had a tantrum because he told us it was too dark in our room and he wanted to put the light on (at 4am) 🥴 Ahhh they keep us young eh?…or old and haggard, whatever shoe fits.
