Who can forget Susan Boyle stepping onto the stage of Britain's got Talent" and wowing the judges, audience and the world when she began singing.

Be kind…to yourself
Last night at a conference, I was struck by the line in a song – ‘Your heart is kind.” Our God is a kind God. He treats us with kindness. He continually demonstrates kindness to us. How precious is your lovingkindness, O God! (Psalm 36:7) For His lovingkindness is great toward us, and the truth… Continue reading Be kind…to yourself
It takes a Village
Panic. Sheer panic! The front door closed behind me and I realised my keys to the car and house, my wallet, my phone were inside.

In fact, in the recent school holidays we had many a trip to a playground with the boys dressed up as Batman, Superman and a Spiderman/Batman mash! All the Superheroes have some amazing… Continue reading Not all Superheroes wear capes
A Legacy of Love
This Mother’s Day I celebrate it with my 7 year old, 5 year old and 3 year old.
