Welcoming James

Family means to love and be loved always.  Family means hard work and tears and laughter and fun.  It means learning and screaming and giggles and fights.  Apologies (sometimes) and cuddles and stories.  And dreams.
A family is a little universe created by love, and a new little brother means twice the chaos and twice the joy.
A family means your hearts are linked together for always.

Erene and Mark

We live vicariously through our friends.

We see things through their eyes, we feel things through their hearts.  We experience things through them that otherwise we would never experience in our own lives. We carry around little pieces of their hearts in ours.  In the hope that during times of unbearable sadness or stress, we can lighten that load even a little by sharing the burden.  And in the knowledge that during times of joy, excitement, happiness we multiply that love and those feelings exponentially by feeling them too.

And all those in between times.  The boring, everyday, mundane times.  Just to have them there, as part of you, even if they are far away.

Erene and Mark are on just about the most amazing journey you can go on with another human being.  They are celebrating their engagement and preparing to welcome a new little person into the world.  The love and joy and excitement they are feeling couldn’t be more deserved.


You are perfect for each other and your love will be the greatest gift your little one will ever receive.

Your happiness is shared by so many, because your friendship is treasured by so many.

And even when there are doubts and worries and fears, you are always in my heart.


Wishing you both all the happiness in the world.  Xoxox

Erene - Oh Tweet, I’m crying happy tears. That’s beautiful and thank you for being apart of our journey, goodness knows we couldn’t get through it without you. And thank you for helping us share our journey through your beautiful talent. Love you to the moon and back x
