Every year I share this beautiful animation. Even though my children are growing up now, we still put this on and watch it on the Sunday morning.
I would urge EVERYONE to watch this. It's so emotionally portrayed and never fails to make me tear up!

For this month's mid-month Substack, I was wondering if anyone had any questions about Margaret More Roper, the subject of my first book, which was published a year ago in July 2024.
If you have any questions please ask away and I will endeavour to answer as many as I can in my Substack on Friday.
