Not flesh of my flesh, Nor bone of my bone,
But still miraculously my own.
Never forget for a single minute,
You didn’t grow under my heart, but in it

13 yrs ago today my girls came home to live with me. At times I’ve thought we wouldn’t make it to this day as a family. It is not the life I was expecting but I can’t regret it. I love my beautiful girls so much that it hurts sometimes 1/2

Here is pet number 3 Benji. Benji is another Cyprus rescue, is 2 yrs old like Bonnie, and has permanent brain damage. It means he always looks a little startled, his head leans to the left and he is deliciously squidgy and soft. He is another ex street kitten and we adore him.

Living in my house is like reverse Downton Abbey. We live in relative poverty but I have 3 extra adults in the house right now. A PA for me & a shift change between tutor and LSA for Eldest 17 who is EOTAS. I’m bedridden today & use Alexa rather than a bell to summon support or speak to the “staff”

No heating upstairs at home but I am being treated to a pet blanket this morning. Can’t complain. I’m lovely and warm in bed

Pet number 2 out of 16 is Bonita or Bonnie. She is a rescue from Cyprus where she was living on the streets as a stray kitten. She eats anything vaguely edible including hair bobbles, cardboard and, if she can get to it, my dinner. But she’s a very affectionate girl so we forgive her #catsofbluesky

Keeping myself busy whilst my girls have OT at the rather wonderful Family Futures in London. Worth travelling 2 hrs for the outstanding provision #adoption #familyfutures #trauma

I struggled with overwhelm today. I started on this lovely set which I’ve been holding on to for a few months. Bobby got confused about who owns the armchair. I ended up sitting in the dog bed

This is one of our 16 rescue pets. Bobby was locked away for about 7 years. We rescued him at 9 yrs old, a reactive terrified mess. 4.5 years later he is still with us being spoilt and loved

Managed to get out on the water with Eldest 17 on Thursday for her ‘PE’ lesson. Been a long time and it healed my soul a tiny bit #adoption #SEND #EOTAS
