Somehow it doesn’t seem real that another year has passed and we’re marking a certain young gentleman’s 11th birthday. When my challenging pregnancy resulted in a premature birth, I had no idea that this Japanese proverb would become the very mantra of our lives as a family of 4. Today we’re celebrating 11 years filled with love, laughter and the continued determination by our youngest to get back up each and every time life knocks him down.
Happy 11th birthday M, may your day be filled with everything you want and so much more!

What a gorgeous boy and how lucky is he to have you as a mum! X
Oh bless you and thanks. Glad that even at 11, he’s still happy to give this Mum some hugs! xxx
