I’ve desperately wanted to go to Download Festival since I was about 13 or 14. However, I was prevented from going with some anxiety issues I’d had since childhood and a lack of money! When my husband won tickets, I was delighted and determined to enjoy a weekend of rock and metal!

Songfinch: Personalised song review
Songfinch are a US based company who offer personalised songs. You may not have heard of them, as they are a relatively new business.
I wanted to get my husband a unique and personal gift for our second wedding anniversary later this month. When Songfinch got in touch with me, I thought the concept behind ordering a personalised song sounded wonderful. I was eager and excited to try it out!
10 little things that make me happy
I was tagged by the lovely Becca at My Girls and Me to write a blog post about 10 little things that make me happy. You can read her post here.

“You’re ugly”, a boy said to me.
Sometimes we have memories from childhood that stand out in our mind. It doesn’t always necessarily always make sense to us as adults.

Even if we would have responded differently now and it seems a little silly, these events can sometimes have a lasting effect on us.
A letter to my daughter at 7 months old
Dear Autumn,
I say this every month, but time is going much too fast! It seems barely any time has passed since I was writing a letter to you at 6 months old! You’re so big now, it hurts my back to carry you. Nanny found my book from when I was a baby and you weigh around 3lbs more than I did when I was your age!
What a good girl. When you came out of hospital after being seriously ill, I kept telling you to drink your milk. I told you that it would make you grow big and strong! Here we are almost half a year later and you’re doing so well.
