Spreading a smile for Jessica! #GiveJoyForJessica

It is a year today since I read the devastating news about Jessica, the daughter of Louise who writes the blog Little Hearts Big Love. I can't imagine what Louise and her family have been through this past year. Jessica was such a special little girl, always with a smile on her face!

Louise is asking that today, on the anniversary of Jessica's death we do something positive to mark the day. To do something to bring another person joy and make them smile. So I am sharing this photo and video.

We baked earlier in the week and Ellie got a bit carried away and forgot what she was doing and brought the hand mixer out of the batter when it was spinning. Oops. It splatted everywhere. After shouting stop, put it back in we both had a good laugh about it.


Before we had started baking I had gone to get a chair to sit on and had left the camera recording. As soon as my back was turned Ellie had to do her dance. She calls it cool, I call it funny. It was caught on camera along with the shifty look back at the camera, the half eye roll, the cheeky laugh and the hair flick. lol

  1. I can't believe that was a year ago, I remember being on my way to a day out and reading Louise's post. Lovely photo of your daughter.

  10. Ellie dancing certainly made me smile, so cheeky and funny. Spreading joy for Jessica was a lovely way to remember her, we left some our favourite children's books for people to find, I hope they brought someone a little joy. #MMBC
