#TrueStory. I’ve been battling an absolute killer of a migraine all today so popped out at lunch for a bit of fresh air. Our offices are right by Oxford Street in London and before I knew it, my feet had walked me into the kids department at H&M. I love H&M kids!

It happened. Little Buttons first tooth has popped right on out. And at school too. I take my hat off to her, as she bravely went about life as normal before.

Every time we approach holiday season I find myself drifting off into the vortex that is Pinterest. Because Pinterest holiday candy looks amazing doesn’t it? You can fill your page with unending clever sweet treats that would have Willy Wonker on the edge of his seat. From chocolate reindeers to Easter bunny carrots, it’s all there, grinning back and waiting to be made. Except nope. As tempting as a glistening…
