Growing pains!

This post is a bit heart felt, it might not be the best time to write a post (more will become clear later)..

Growing pains is a great phrase at the moment..it relates to lots of things:

Firstly there's the business Lam of London, it's really taken off. The client list is growing and I'm lucky as I work with / for some lovely people. The timings weren't great though, as just as new clients and projects came into fruition so did the Summer Holidays. This Summer has been hard work it's official!

So the first thing I did was enlist the help of a very talented ex colleague and good friend (someone you'll hear more about in future posts), who is now working along side me and I'm sure will bring new skills to what Lam of London can offer, as apart from having over a decade of footwear design experience she is also not far from Northampton so can help with product development at the UK factories! So the pressure eased over the school holidays which I spent a large part of wishing I had more time to spend working and less time dedicated to childcare and play, but now the shoe is on the other foot (sorry couldn't resist a footwear related saying) as I find myself with less than a week to go till little Miss M starts school and now wishing I'd spent more time playing!

So next week school starts and Lam of London becomes my main focus again, I'm pleased it's so busy as I will have less time to miss the little one, she's growing up and Lam of London is growing in workforce and clients, exciting times all round.

So if you hear some distant wailing next Monday, don't panic it will just be me sobbing at the school gate as my baby becomes a big girl and skips into school (hopefully?)
