ELSIE IS GROWING UP TOO FAST, SO I’M SLOWING DOWN

I CAN feel Elsie’s childhood slipping through my fingers. Really, I can. Those special moments, this special age she’s at, it’s all slipping through my fingers at an alarming rate.

A FAMILY HOLIDAY TO LAKE MAGGIORE, ITALY

IT seems only right that I finish 2015 with this post. About our family holiday to Lake Maggiore in Italy. Because it was a stand out holiday for many reasons. It was our first holiday abroad, through this blog. It was the first time we’d been to Italy with Elsie. It was also the place where I had the biggest health scare of my life. It was a time for
