We was flying through the show other people's designs looked amazing.
It was my models turn! This was it. The music continued to play and my girls walked that runway.

Knowing that top designers were seeing my work my insides felt like they were gonna fall out of my ass.

I peered round there front row middle my husband and my children and now my bestfriend was watching.

The final model became on the stage and walked ...

"April breath!! You done amazing!! Your designs are incredible" Hayley smiles.


The show finished I was approached by so many potential clients it was overwhelming but I had to get home to my family.

I gave them all my card with the contact details and told them to be in touch!

Secretly I just wanted to get out of there be home it's been a long stressful successful day.

"Babe?" I called out as I closed the door behind me.
"Leyton?" I called out again as there was no answer. Weird.
I walk through the house to the kitchen. "Surprise!" Leyton, Ari and Toby call out!

"What is this?"  I smiled.
"Well we wanted to congratulate you on your show! And we know how stressed you were! So I arranged with Leyton to have a Chinese and wine here!" Ari beamed as she passed me some wine.

"This is amazing, you didn't have to!"

"Here's to your success, my beautiful wife" Leyton smiled kisses me softly!

It's the smallest things that really mean the most.

The evening was great, just what I needed to unwind after one of the most overwhelming days I've ever had! But rewarding!

Ari Charlie and Toby left around 9pm! The twins were peacefully sleeping and I needed my bed!

I changed out of my clothes and into my night clothes took off my makeup brushes my hair and put it up. This is the mum look the look that I always rock.

"Do you know how proud I am of you!"
"No? But I do now!" I smiled as I lean down onto Leytons chest. He pulls the comforter up towards us.

"I am, tonight was just amazing you were amazing ... have faith in yourself and you'll go far!"

"Getting soft in your old age babe" I chuckled. He nudged me playfully then kissed my
Head. "Just be quiet and go to sleep" he whispered with a smile.

This here in his arms was my safe place. I knew nothing or no one could hurt me. It was like my own protection bubble.

And all of this? Felt like a dream.
