A new kind of happiness

As the dust settles, every day through the grief we learn something new. 

The most important lesson I learnt as the clock struck midnight and a new year began? Happiness comes in many various and different forms. 

I used to think pure happiness would only happen if we were a family of three. My soulmate, my beautiful baby and me. I have come to realise that life sends you many surprises and bumps along the way to teach you that happiness comes in many forms. 

Life is beautiful

Almost two months ago our beautiful little boy Idrees left us to join a band of similarly blessed babies in Heaven.

Motherhood is the greatest blessing I have ever received and Idrees will always be my most special little one. We miss him every single moment but also realise how very blessed we are to have someone so cute in our lives who makes saying goodbye, for now, so hard.

Our son was on this planet for five days but the lessons he has taught all those who have known him have touched our lives for a lifetime.

Everyday since has been a reminder that life is short, but very beautiful. Remember that life is too special to spend it worrying or stressed or upset.

Embrace every single day with a grateful heart and a positive mindset and watch how the beauty of this life takes you by surprise, giving you a reason to smile everyday.

Whatever troubles keep you up at night, my only wish is that I hope you find peace, contentment and perspective.

Make every moment count, you only get one chance to make your life worthwhile.
