Another beautiful read. Small is definitely special, and it took me a long time to realise that. I admire your attention to detail and your commitment to brightening people's day - your son clearly has a similar mindset which is so lovely.
I remember the small acts of kindness, rather than the grand gestures. My Mum getting me cosy in bed before pulling off my socks, so my feet wouldn't be exposed to the cold. A friend sending me a little card just to say hello. Another friend sending me something fun to read in lockdown. These gestures are so small and simple yet so, so powerful. x
Thank you so much for your comment Jan. I hadn’t realised until I started writing this piece how many projects I had worked on that focused on small detail. I have enough to write a whole other post in the future.
I love the small acts of kindness that you have shared, particularly the story of the cosy socks. You clearly have a very special mum. I am off to have a read of your substack now 💛

Thank you Kate. I'd love to read that future post when you get around to it! Take care, Jan x
Such a beautiful read Kate, brought back lovely memories of you growing up and always being so creative 💕
We definitely had a very creative childhood 💛
