I took the day off work and Rosa took the day off school and we went on an ADVENTURE! It’s very rare for us to spend one to one time together at the moment it was long overdue. It was an “educational trip” to Edinburgh. We took the tram into the centre and went to the national portrait gallery. Rosa loved sketching all her favourite things. We had lunch in the cafe and headed to the theatre. We had just finished reading Matilda and Rosa goes to musical theatre classes (@starpowerperformingarts) so we HAD to see Matilda. I also made Rosa the book bag for world book day which she was excited to use again! The show was amazing! Rosa was a bit nervous about the trunchbull but we remembered it’s just actors doing a show and it was fine. The set design was incredible (being a set designer in a former life I’m a bit of a set and costume geek) after the show we went and had pizza! It was the best day everrrrrrr. She made a project about it all and is showing her teachers today. Has anyone else seen Matilda? @edinplayhouse @nationalgalleriesscot #matilda #matildamusical #nationalportraitgalleryedinburgh #dayout #adventure #worldbookday2026 #motherdaughter

Last night was @ArtClub time again! I’ve been looking forward to this all month and it didn’t disappoint! My 2 hours of cutting and sticking is like meditation and I love going along. This months theme was Henri Matisse! I was excited because he lived in Nice, where I also lived for 3 years (I actually lived on Avenue Henri Matisse!) so I knew a bit about his work already. I decided to look through my photos from my time in France and used Nice as my inspiration. What do you think? #crafting #craftymum #craftclass #metime #kidscrafting

⚡️ I had my third session at @Kayleigh|The BOLT Rooms⚡️ tonight and I love it so much. It’s only been 3 sessions but already I’m lifting heavier weights and feeling less nervous - I actually look forward to it! Kayleigh is so good at pushing you but not in an overwhelming way, she’s brilliant at what she does. I normally find gyms incredibly intimidating and anxiety inducing but this place is the complete opposite. It has a real community vibe with everyone cheering each other on 🩷 They have an offer running just now so give them a follow and get in touch 💪🏻⚡️ #fitness #fitnessjourney #fitfor40 #mumfitness #gymmum #liftingweights
