HaPpY BiRtHdAy to my darling Dolly!

Aries warrior. Mercury Retrograde survivor (๐Ÿคญ) Strong. Wise. Funny and endlessly loved. How do I even begin to put into words a friendship like ours? Iโ€™m not sure I canโ€ฆ

THIS yearโ€ฆ itโ€™s your year Dolly. ๐Ÿค Watching you chase your dreams and bring your beautiful shop She Sells Seashells to life is pure magic. I am so, so proud of you. ๐Ÿš

Usually, Iโ€™d post a montage of our memories from over the years - but this time feels different. This time itโ€™s about nowโ€ฆ and everything still to come! ๐Ÿค Not looking back, but stepping forward - embracing this beautiful next chapter and excited for what the year ahead has to offer! โ€ฆAlso, making sure weโ€™re in front of the camera more, not just behind itโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ“ธโœจ

Walk home with me ๐Ÿพ Featuring Elton, Casper & Sweetpea! ๐Ÿˆโœจ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ˜ป

A misty afternoon walk from the workshop for me and after the school bus for himโ€ฆ and somehow my boy is already miles ahead, even though we set off together - apparently I walk too slowly and Iโ€™m too easily distracted by the catsโ€ฆ Heโ€™s absolutely right of course! ๐Ÿ˜ป

Nearly the Easter Holidays for us! ๐Ÿค

Palm Sunday in Clovelly.
๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ’’๐Ÿค

A beautiful service at All Saints Church, led by Revd. Andrew McWilliam, setting a reflective and uplifting tone for the day.

Then Clovelly donkeys Bert and Alfred, stole our hearts as they joined the service and led the way from the church, through Clovelly Court Gardens, along the Long Walk, down the cobbles and on to the New Inn.

A wonderful Clovelly day.

Itโ€™s been a beautifully peaceful start to the day here at Crazy Kateโ€™s - a gloriously slow weekend after such a busy time recently.

The lighter mornings are making all the difference, and weโ€™re so grateful for a bit of sunshine - my morning coffee never tasted so good! โ˜€๏ธ

Itโ€™s been a ridiculously busy few weeks, so Iโ€™ve been a little quiet on hereโ€ฆ but hereโ€™s a small peek at whatโ€™s been filling my camera roll lately ๐Ÿค The in-between moments, squeezed around work, nonsense and everyday life! ๐Ÿค

With love on Motherโ€™s Day ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ’—๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒฟโ˜€๏ธ

To all strong, wise and loving mothers, single mothers, grandmothers, God-mothers, lone parents (๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ), guardians and carers. You are ALL amazing and so are our beautiful children. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’•

As ever, my love and thoughts are with you if today is a cruel reminder of loss and longingโ€ฆ

For the people who keep on keeping on - in the best of times, and the worst of timesโ€ฆ Smiling when all you really want to do is cryโ€ฆ I see you. โ™ฅ๏ธ Not just on days like Motherโ€™s Day, but every day - and I wish for you nothing but kindness and gentle opportunities to help your heart heal. โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน

With HUGE love and eternal thanks to my extended and chosen family, who are with me and my boys every step of the way. ๐Ÿฅฐ

Happy Sunday everyone!

Taking a moment to appreciate the textures in the Red Lion archway - and the patterns in the cobbles which guide us home.

Centuries are etched into those stones.

Just the machines vs. the entire ocean! ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿšœโš“๏ธ

Every winter, big tides and stormy seas build a pebble ridge at the end of Clovelly harbour wall.

Sooner or later, those pebbles have to be moved so that boats can safely get in and out of the harbour.

The sound of the stones echoing around the harbour is unreal, but Iโ€™ve lived here long enough now that I actually find it strangely reassuringโ€ฆ I must be mad! ๐Ÿ˜…

A couple of years ago I shared this same processโ€ฆ and somehow that post blew up way past 600K views!

Morning clouds rolling over Clovelly Harbour

Thirty minutes, condensed into just a few seconds.

Thereโ€™s a lot unfolding in the world right now.

This little timelapse felt like a quiet reminder that while so much is uncertain, the tide still shifts, the clouds still drift and the earth keeps turning.

Holding space for the terrifying realities so many are facing - and also for the small, steady moments that help us stay grounded.

If youโ€™re feeling overwhelmed, if youโ€™re struggling with fear, grief or heartacheโ€ฆ maybe take a pause today. I know I will be. ๐Ÿซถ Notice whatโ€™s around you. Find the glimmers, however small.

Note to self:
Look up.
Breathe deeply.
Stay present.

What a joyful morning we shared at St Peterโ€™s Chapel, brightening up a grey February day together.

Gina baked the most marvellous chocolate cake ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฐ Dolly made endless cups of tea โ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿซ– Chris, Richard and David were on bunting and daffodil duty!

It may have been raining outside, but everyone who joined us brought the sunshine. โ›…๏ธ Thank you to each and every person who came along and made it such a special gathering.

Weโ€™re already looking forward to the next one. ๐ŸŒผ
