So as you know it was me birthday the other day and what a wonderful time it was too. Of course, because of the huge personality I am, not all the presents and goodies could be received on that day and one of the big deals that me loving family put together was a chance […]
Read More Having A Feast Of FunTrawling through the archives I discover I can neither have a title that says ‘He Ain’t Heavy‘ because that was taken. Neither can I have a title ‘He’s My Brother‘ because that’s taken. I cannot even have a title called ‘Man After God’s Heart‘ because that has been taken as well!! So for the time […]
Read More Oh BrotherI saw this picture recently and couldn’t help thinking of my daughters. Deborah is still that verbose and is picking up a wider vocabulary with each passing book she reads. Abigail may not be as dexterous verbally but she knows how to use her ‘cute’ looks and sheer force of nature to convince her parents […]
Read More The Baby EvangelistMy youngest daughter bounded toward the child protection gate and jigged up and down with power and zest and the world’s most adorable smile. So full of life, so full of joy. That God would grant me an opportunity to see her grow was so marvellous to me. To see her as well as her […]
Read More A Little Reminder Of GraceSaturday 17 July 2010. Location: Little Hulton, Greater Manchester. Everything that could be packed was packed, there was uncertainty as to whether everything would go in one trip, but there was certainty that we were moving. Again.

Particularly my mother. My Dad was not verbose and so mastered the model of speaking few words with great wisdom and authority. So it was my mother who […]
Read More Wisdom From Home: Show Off Brings DisgraceI grew up in a good Christian home. Two loving parents who did their best by their children and three children who did their best to get the worst out of each other, but behind which there was a bond and an affection that was really realised when we all left the family home and […]
Read More Across The BridgeJust enough time to share a word of thanksgiving to God for the birth of the second daughter of the Dryden Family Abigail Elizabeth Danielle. Today she celebrated five years on the planet. Those years have not been easy for her and the last one in particular has seen her endure quite a lot. Through […]
Read More Celebrating the Life of Awesome AbigailSo another month is upon us and this is a Bank Holiday Monday so technically I’ve been able to enjoy a day off work. Key words in that statement ‘technically’ and ‘enjoy’. For all that I’m enjoying life at present, despite some bad health of late, I remain in the land of the living. I’ve […]
Read More May UpdateA mother’s love gets a lot of hype in our society. The balance is wrong I think. In as much as the nurturing love of a mother is important to a baby’s healthy upbringing, my reading on the situation was that it required both the father and the mother. Neglecting one and heightening the role […]
