This past week has been one of the hardest of our lives, filled with every emotion imaginable.
We started with such a proud moment, watching our two eldest boys graduate and step into their next chapter. A day full of love and happiness.
Just a day later, our world changed when my dear dad went to sleep for the last time.
He had lived a full and beautiful life, but he was still very much living it. Right up until the end he was creating in his workshop, giving, and finding purpose in every day.
Since losing my mum just over two years ago, he showed us what real strength looks like. Quiet resilience, gratitude, determination and purpose in a life that had changed so deeply.
We feel so grateful for all the time we had with him, and the memories we made as a family.
He was my biggest supporter, always encouraging me to believe in myself and just go for it.
And then, because life doesn’t stop, we also moved house the very next day!
I guess unpacking boxes has kept me busy this week and my mind distracted, as it’s been super tough.
We also had a birthday party booked for yesterday - for me it was so important that we delivered as promised, and brought a little happiness to the birthday girls special day and it actually felt quite special, ending such an emotional and hard week, doing what we love 🩷
As we now prepare to fly back to the UK, I am holding tightly onto gratitude.
Gratitude for every visit, every memory, every conversation, every photo taken.
Most of all, comfort in knowing my daddy is now reunited with my beautiful mummy - the love of his life 🩷 .
THIS is why we take so many photos!
I will carry you with me every single day, my Daddy ❤️
We have now closed early for the summer and are flying back to be with my 7 siblings, family and friends.
I’d like to say an enormous THANK YOU to each and every one of you for the first part of 2026. It hasn’t been an easy year (as I’m sure everyone will agree with), but I am so grateful for every order, party, and workshop booked.
We WILL be back at the end of August, stronger & more determined than ever before ,
Lots of love xx
