2.45 am, 41 hours into another food fast to explore the real health benefits before deciding to recommend fasting as an activity for a wealth of health and longevity or not....

and I'm buzzing a different and unfamiliar buzz to any I've had before. Today for the first time in our lives we signed a contract to have a secure roof over our heads, a space to create a home for our wee family and build something special with a bit more security of mind and future. Over the coming week or so we will be receiving the keys to our very first family home and it's far from a notion of jumping on a so called property ladder or buying into the capitalist concepts that have propelled this move but more of a case of wanting to ground and base ourselves in one place for more than five minutes for the first time and look to continue discovering directions & harnessing our ambitions but with a sense of one foot on the ground. The true meaning of family support and generosity has shone though for me, something I have yet to experience in such a way and we are truly grateful to those who were able to lend their support and words of encouragement and assist us to walk witj our heads held high to this next step.

We are nearly there....

..................................................................

Are we there yet?

Well, we are almost there little girl with your one little curl, were almost there, and Christ, do your Mam and Dad care, we're gonna get there because we care, because we dare to challenge this world, your world, fears unfurled, no stones unturned, energies being burned but corners turned and so so much learned since you entered our world. Security, stability, peace of mind, papers being signed, we want them becoming reality, for you, your mama and me, foundations layed, deposits paid, the buildings empty, a home to be made, without your mammys family this would be far far from reality, it would never be or even close to be, to see humility, humanity, gratitude and sanity all combined to provide us with hope, seeds being sown, together not alone, almost there..... almost home.
