The Mother’s Day Prize Bundle Giveaway

Being a Mum is a hard job, whether you stay at home or go to work. Regardless of how many children you have, there are so many plates to keep spinning. This, of course, is all while responding to the constant calls of “Mummy!” If I’m not washing, I’m making food. If I’m not making food, I’m stopping my little stuntwoman from doing something dangerous! There is just always so much to do. As such, if you’re anything like me, self-care often falls to the wayside. Therefore, myself and some other UK bloggers have teamed up to give you the chance to win a fantastic bundle of goodies this Mother’s Day which is worth £200.

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.

My first Mother’s Day

Yesterday I experienced my first Mother’s Day as a mum. I think this is a big milestone for any new mum and the day takes on a whole new meaning!
