Have Child, Will Carry

02/06/2017

So, my last sling meet was a couple of weeks ago which made me very sad, BUT, I'm really happy to be able to share this and to ask you all to bear with us while I hand over the West Kent Sling Meet reigns to a couple of lovely women who are going to offer a warm and friendly Sling Meet Social in it's place.

If anybody is needing help in the meantime I'll be very happy to signpost towards our other fantastic local sling meets that are running in Kent so that you don't feel abandoned.

For European Babywearing Week, such a beautiful poem.
🌈❤️🌈

"I Carry You Always."

A poem for European Babywearing Week 2017
~
"New life in my belly, I carried you inside.
Birthed into my arms and from first you cried,
I wrapped you softly in cloth tied around,
Placed gently where you’d still hear my heart’s sound.
~
While cushy fabric held us skin to skin,
I fell in love and I breathed you in.
Happiness; smelling your head on my chest.
I was your world as you nursed at my breast.
~
I carried you as you explored and learned,
At exploits end, to my arms you returned.
I carried you safe and close as you grew,
Learned to walk, to run and before I knew,
I’d carried you to a new phase, new zone.
Watched you stride into a life of your own.
~
What once woven threads held bound together,
Now bonds of love form an unseen tether,
Keeping us connected when we’re apart,
‘Cos… I carry you always… in my heart."

Hope you're all having a great

I wasn't sure whether to share this on our page here or not since it's my Studio page and not really child carrying related but after a lot of consideration I though I would!

Girl Rising is an amazing project to support and I'm donating 100% of profits from this collage print I designed to them.

You can find out more about Girl Rising via the link to my blog in the post below and the link to my shop is there too.

Please do share and like my Studio post or tag anyone you think might like it.

The print comes with a mini booklet listing the main women in the print and some basic info.

To keep up to date with my work and general painty/messiness from me when I'm not here then please like my page Kit Forrest Studio

HAPPY FOURTH BIRTHDAY West Kent Sling Meet and Library

In all the madness of being poorly and while attempting to start catching up on all the jobs/emails that occurred during that time I ALMOST missed that it's our birthday at this Friday's sling meet!!! It's only thanks to Debbie that I spotted it (thanks hon!)

I'm off to make a cuppa to celebrate! I can't believe it's been four years!

There was no time to sit and write a post this year in all the chaos so I'm going to re-share last years and I'm offering free shipping on orders over £40 in the shop too (I'll add the shop link underneath)

Hope you are all well!
