• Chicken Soup for the Soul

    I need a hug! One that comes  with a hot soup and huge fluffy arms to keep me  warm inside and out.

    And she is bringing my darling Seni, her son with her. Seni, who is five thinks I am the coolest grown up ever. He actually asked his mum if I could come for a sleep over at theirs once. I was so chuffed! A five year old thinks I am cool. It’s a wonderful feeling… Continue Reading
