I can feel myself reverting to the thought processes I had as a child. The way I was 100% certain that I was adopted because I was treated so differently from my sisters, but this time it’s not for that reason. It’s because I cannot get my head around how I can be related to…

2014

It’s the first day of 2014 and I feel really positive, content and happy. The children and I spent the morning preparing for our ‘Open House.’ I decided a couple of weeks ago that I would invite friends and family to come round any time of the day, spend time together, share food and start…
