Emma, wife to Mike and mum to Rachel.
I was a civil engineer project manager, specialising in value and risk management and facilitation.
Now I am a full time follower of God's calling for me as a Licensed Lay Pioneer Minister.
Motherhood is thanks to a miracle, and it is a blessing everyday.
I first blogged whilst I was pregnant with Rachel and you can see that at LossofBirthControl

My writing is wider than just my blogs; I have had a number of books published over the years, mostly to support charities, you can find these on the "Author" tab.
In 2015 I lost my sight and most of my Mobility but after a year adjusting, supported with counselling, I'm not letting it stop me.
