This is just a reminder that there are signs all around us in life, sometimes we just forget how to look for them or be open enough to recieve the hidden messages. They could come as divine intervention, an idea or thought you just cant shake, or a kick up the bum when you need it the most. Life itself is full of magical moments like the fairies and the orbs that dance around to the dawn chorus in the early morning sunrise or the bats that dip and dive as the sun sets on a warm summers evening. Robins are said to be a sign that a loved one is near so the next time one crosses your path or pops into your line of sight and visits you in your garden be sure to say hello and acknowledge them being there with you. I will quite often chat away with the robin as it flits around me in the garden or flies alongside me on my bike rides. Finding a white feather that has appeared from nowhere just like magic is also a sign that a loved one is watching over you or is nearby, so appreciate mom...

I'm incredibly lucky enough to have six children. But our story is unique and our journey has been tough.  I have ebony born in 2003, Leoni born in 2004, Benjamin born in 2008, Toby born in 2011, Chloe born in 2014 and Isabella just born in January this year!!!!! In 2009 our lives were turned upside down when Benjamin aged one at the time was rushed into hospital almost in a coma. He was extremely unwell and was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.  We had no idea children could get diabetes, I don't think I really even knew there was a type 1 diabetes. It was extremely hard to process that our one year old now had a life long, life threatening condition. We had to learn how to inject him and count the carbohydrates in his food, aswell as learn how to deal with life threatening hypoglycemia and how to deal with the way high bloods can make behaviour change . He couldn't talk so we had to learn different cries...

As you grow up in life you always have different ambitions and goals or carer paths you want to achieve and go for when you’re older. For me this was no different I always said I either wanted to work in the IT Industry or become a Nanny. When it came to a time to choose It was around the time of the big Baby P Case and it opened my eyes as to what I could be potentially be accused of in different situations and I never wanted that on my shoulders, so I decided to go down the IT route. I graduated from University with my IT Degree and headed out into the “Real World”.  Out in the “Real World” things are a lot scarier than they seem growing up and when you look around most Self-employed businesses generally were run by Males especially in the perception of mainly male orientated job roles and IT was no different.  When I reached around 25 years old, I said by the time I was 30 years old I wanted my Own home, My own car and my own Business with the IT Industry. ...

  You will come across many different people in your lifetime.  Some will stay and remain in your life supporting from the sides and others will come and go as they please. The friends you want to surround yourself with are the ones that are always going to be there for you, the ones who will pick you up when you're down and people who are not afraid to tell you when you're out of line or wrong. Dr Seuss said it right " Be who you are and say how you feel, those who mind, don't matter and those who matter don't mind"  This is how I choose to lead my life and choose who I allow into my inner circle.   Life is far too precious and short to be worrying about what you're saying and what other people think about you. Just be who you want to be, see who you want to see and love who you want to love. There are those people who come into your life just at the right moment in time and when you least expect it. People who become more than just friends, they become f...

  So when you get that niggling feeling deep down, the type that won't just let you be.  Stop what your doing and ask yourself is it your fear of the unknown that is stopping you from moving forward or your body's sat-nav system telling you to pause for a minute and just think about that next step you're about to take. You either take the plunge and explore the new direction and opportunity and see where it takes you, whether that's with love or with business, you have that choice and it's yours to make no one else's. Don't allow your decisions to be influenced by those around you, stand firm by what you believe in and by what you feel is right at the time. Worst case scenario you make a mistake, you take a wrong turn.  Nothing you do is ever a failure though it's a learning curve and when you decide that you should have followed your gut instinct instead, that's ok as you have already grown by making that decision.  The trick is to listen to your gu...
