I started my week with an early morning catch-up with woman&home digital content director Anna, and, as usual, our conversation started with how we'd spent the weekend.
As Anna told me about some lovely plans she had enjoyed with her family and friends, a wave of sadness came over me. It all sounded so festive and joyful in comparison to the few days I had spent navigating illness with kids, plans changing, the ever-looming feeling that I still have so much to get ready for Christmas and the growing worry that something - or, more importantly, someone - has been forgotten.
