Hello! This has been a terrible year for blogging, and for me in general I kind of feel like the first 5 or 6 months have been something of a write off. A short spell in hospital in January knocked me for 6, felt a bit better by Feb, then… pregnant! 
But with the worst first-trimester symptoms yet. I’m 19 weeks now and have just started to get some energy back, but still with bouts of exhaustion and headaches. The house, children, home educating – we’ve all been in survival mode, but this state of barely getting by has caused me to rethink a few things, which hopefully I will get to explore and examine a bit on here.
In my weeks and months of silence, the lovely mum6kids over at Thinking Love, No Twaddle has bestowed upon me the Liebster Blog Award! German for Dearest, it’s designed to encourage and support those of us in the quieter areas of the blogosphere.
I want to pass it on to SarahElizabeth over at Delivering Grace and Lisa at An Ordinary Life? who somehow manages to blog nearly every single day. They have lots of great ideas and information about home education, and life with little ones in general. Enjoy!
Thank you, Clare-this is appreciated. Hope your energy levels continue to improve. Looking forward to your posts.
You’re welcome
And thank you. Doubt very much I’ll be leaping into regular blogging mode (have never located that button!) but am having lots of thoughts and this is a good place to explore them.
