Biography

I work full time as a Receptionist and enjoy writing short stories & poems in my spare time. Singing and dancing are also hobbies of mine - I do ballet (and like to dance in general), and am part of a church choir. I also like walking, drawing and colouring.

ARE THEY SLEEPING?

Are your little ones sleeping? What do they dream of? Do they fly among the stars, or explore the lush rainforest? Do they play and frolic on sandy beaches? Or do they travel through the cosmos? Perhaps they climb huge mountains, or run and play in huge gardens. Maybe they are venturing through ancient woodland, or diving among the marine life of a great ocean. The owl, with great wings outstretched, goes in search of nightly prey, and the badgers venture out of their setts. A fox prowls on stealthy feet, and wolves howl in the distance. Yet there is the child who stands at the bedroom window, and marvels at the celestial beauty of the moon, before tiredness entices them to bed. Are your little ones sleeping? Don’t they look peaceful? Tomorrow you will marvel at their boundless energy, and the stories they tell of their night time adventures.
