I’ll Rise up in spite of the ache….

Some days, just some days, I think Enough. There are only so many times, when you can smile, and walk away. There are only so many times I can hear the words, ‘we can’t treat it’. I know I could have much worse news. I know in the big picture I have been very lucky. […]

A summer full of Super Heroes.

This summer I decided to tick off another item on my bucket list. I decided along with a friend to do a one night trip to Disneyland Paris. Obviously I have been to Disneyland Paris 12 times before. The bucket list part of this trip would be to see how much we could fit in, […]

Two little Ducks went swimming one day…

Do you remember that nursery rhyme? My kids both loved it. Neither have mentioned it for a few years but last week it popped back into my head. When we decided to go to Disney again, we decided to make it a longer trip. Our last trip with the kids had been hard for Elijah. […]

A tale as old as time.

This weekend I got to go and see the new live action Beauty and the Beast. I have to say I was a little nervous that it wouldn’t live up to my very high expectations as this film, although not my favourite Disney movie was one that was special to me and I remember clearly going […]

Dreaming big & being a princess.

In August 2016 we were blessed to be able to take the kids to see Aladdin in the west end. As I have blogged about it before you will know that we totally fell in love with this production. From the lights to the staging to the truly wonderful singing, dancing and acting it was […]

All I want for Christmas.

Is My Family: I want to celebrate the end of  a year with the people I love. I want to gather round and eat too much food, I want to have too much sugar and I want to spend two days feeling far too full up. I want to watch my kids pull the paper […]

Magic everywhere.

This weekend I got to spend time in my favourite place, Disneyland Paris. This trip was a little different from my previous trips in that, I didn’t have the kids or Ben with me and instead I travelled with my friend and we spent our time together and with even more Disney friends. About a […]

That place between awake and asleep.

  Facebook: www.facebook.com/lonelycaterpillar Twitter: @Lonelycater1 You know when you are just about to fall asleep at night and then your brain just starts buzzing? That seems to be the only time at the moment that I get any ideas on what to write. Of course i’m just that wee bit too sleepy to get up, […]

London 2016 Part 2

Facebook:  www.facebook.com/lonelycaterpillar Twitter: @Kitaclarke On our second Day in London, we had breakfast in our Travelodge hotel. I felt breakfast was great value for money, with a choice of hot breakfast, cereals, fruit, pastries and yogurt. Megan was especially happy as she could have her all time favourite breakfast, beans on toast!! The tea and […]

London, Autism and Aladdin Part 1

www.facebook.com/lonelycaterpillar/ This week we have been having an adventure in London. Every year since Ben and I became a couple I have spent a good chunk of my year traveling to England. Now we always try to fit at least one trip to England a year in with our kids. This year due to family […]
