Can you believe it is day 8 of our advent giveaways? As you may have seen, Sarah suffered a loss this week so we are taking it easy with today’s giveaway, taking inspiration from her Instagram catch up competitions. I think Instagram catch ups are lovely ideas for posts as I know that I update on there daily on my feed and sometimes multiple times during the day on my stories – but you may miss them!
So with that being said, here’s some Insta posts for you to catch up with…

I hadn’t been aware of Sarah’s ‘losses’. Thanks for the update / information. We have had losses our selves this year :- some friends and family. Takes time to readjust. Will always remember them with love. I so loved seeing and reading about Sarah’s pet. Mostly Sally, probably because we loved having dogs over the years, and miss the experience. Sending love and Best Wishes to Sarah and family.
I would like to see more giveaways, reviews. Sarah sharing, if she wishes to :- About her health, how she managed to get diagnosis, what helps her manage her health condition/s, who or where she sources help / assistance. Management and Self Management are important issues. Anything else that she wants to share.
Yourself :- Updates on children, Parenting, educational books, etc. Prize giveaways, jokes perhaps, how to get some adult time :- when trying to raise a family. Time for self to relax and recuperate. Time for leisure and recreation :- Cinema, Theatre, lunch with friends, etc. Anything else that you choose to share.
