Frazzled after reading some angry posts on social media today. Sometimes it's just not worth getting into it, but it's hard. I am a recovering people-pleaser!

How brilliant is this tune though? Found it on Tiktok by the amazing @hicorook and I'm excited to see that it's going to be released tomorrow! 😍

I was on the Anna Jinja Show on KHOI radio yesterday, talking about my children's books to help children to understand foster care, kinship care and adoption! I find it absolutely wild that I can be on a radio show in Iowa, while at home in the UK! Go technology! Thanks for having me on the show, Anna!

The Scottish Child Payment was increased in November last year, the eligibility criteria for Scottish Child Payment, Best Start Foods and Best Start Grant were widened to include kinship carers who had a pre-existing relationship with a child they care for, even if they are not related to the child.

If you've got one of my books in your Amazon basket, now's the time to check out! The books are printed to order, to prevent waste, and the printers will be having a Christmas shutdown starting at the end of this week. They will print some spares to be shipped during the closure, but last year the demand exceeded orders and some people had to wait til January for their books.

If you are a within a reasonable distance of Milton Keynes, I really recommend looking up the group and joining a future session. They are such a warm, welcoming group of people, and they clearly give each other wonderful support. ❤️
