It’s been well over a year since I last posted on here which is a new record for me! Truth be told I just haven’t felt like it. I think I became a bit disillusioned with the whole thing and I wasn’t comfortable with where it might end up if I continued writing whilst not really ‘feeling it’. Whilst I made a promise not to write unless I wanted to/felt the need I did sometimes end up putting pressure on myself to write a post as the blog became more widely read and had I carried on with this I think it would have perhaps affected the integrity and real purpose of the blog. So, there you have it and that’s enough of that – now onto the the return of Little Budlington :)Well, as you know a year is a very long time in a child’s development and Rosie is no exception to this. She has come on leaps and bounds and whilst she’s still our same little Rosie she is also so very different to a year ago and different in the most positive of ways. Hitting out and smacking has almost become a thing of the past and she communicates verbally so much better now which I think has played a big factor in this change.There have been big changes also for Rosie at school where she is now in Year 1 with a new teacher and a different ‘one-to-one’ arrangement. We are eternally grateful for everything the teaching staff have done for her in Reception – without their structured approach to working with Rosie I can confidently say that she wouldn’t be at the stage she is now. They provided Rosie with an essential base from which she is now steadily building on.We were initially concerned about how she would deal with the change as she was so settled in Reception. She was now faced with the daunting prospect of a new and bigger class, a different classroom with a new teacher and two new one-to-one’s (who all do a brilliant job). Thankfully she has (and not for the first time) surprised us by adapting really well – we haven’t had any kicking and screaming episodes with refusals to go into school, I guess that might come in her teens?!Things have been progressing so well to the point that she’s recently started to line-up with the rest of her class and walk herself into the classroom without any assistance – a clear sign of independence but also that she is happy in school which is very reassuring for us.It’s also reassuring for me to see Rosie adapting so well. Knowing she will have to face many changes to routines and situations in life moving forward – getting her used to this from an early age will do her no harm at all.As you’ll see from the images below Rosie loves bringing reading books home and learning to recognise words, she’s not at a stage of being able to read full sentences yet but that isn’t a concern, we’re pleased she is happy to sit down (relatively still!) and browse through books at all – the rest will follow in her own time – nothing new there!I’ve also included a couple of pics from a special day for our whole family back in November when we were invited to Buckingham Palace by HRH The Countess of Wessex to celebrate Mencap’s 70th anniversary. Sadly we aren’t allowed to show the images from the Royal photographer on a public forum so I’ve included a couple from outside where we had the chance to get a couple of snaps with friends Sarah Gordy and ‘Super Seb’.

It is not healthy to use different products without knowing its composition and the effect it will possibly cause. Some stick to the promises of cosmetic products on giving them great skin. However, those promises are for commercial purposes only.

You can also use the skin of the apple as a skin cleanser, which can give you nice glowing results. Ice cubes can also be used to improve blood circulation and keep your skin healthy. All you have to do is rub it on your skin and let it dry.

Eczema – Different Types of Eczema
The term ‘eczema’ originates from the Greek language. It means to ‘boil’ or ‘flow out’ and is used to describe a range of skin conditions. It is sometimes diagnosed as dermatitis, which is a general term meaning inflammation of the skin. Different types of eczema include atopic eczema, contact eczema, discoid eczema, seborrhoeic eczema, and varicous eczema.
The condition is also classified in terms of how quickly it appears and how long it remains. If it appears quickly and is severe for a short length of time, it is known as ‘acute,’ and if it appears more slowly and lasts for a long time, it is classified as ‘chronic.’
As the skin is the largest organ of the body, it is important that it functions correctly, and that the pain and discomfort of an eczema sufferer is not underestimated.
Atopic Eczema
Atopic eczema is the most common type of eczema and is characterised by the ‘scratch, itch’ cycle. Around 75% of cases are seen in children under the age of 6 months, but on the plus side, there is a good chance of growing out of it during the teenage years, or sooner.
A sufferer of atopic eczema may have allergies to pollens, detergents, possibly some foods, or it may be inherited from their parent(s). It often affects the inside of knees and elbows, but can appear anywhere on the body. Biological washing powders often cause itching and inflammation of the skin, as does clothing and bedding that are not made from cotton.
Contact Eczema
This is similar to atopic eczema, in that it is caused by an allergy to a substance such as detergent, or perfume. There are many possible causes of contact eczema and it is very difficult to diagnose the exact cause(s).
In the case of teenage children and adults the doctor may suggest a patch test if the suspected causes are few, for example animal fur, but if the patient has no idea what may be causing the problem, this test may be futile as there are so many possible allergens to test for.
Discoid Eczema
Discoid Eczema is usually seen in adults and has no obvious cause. Rounded patches tend to appear on the upper body and lower legs, which may exude fluid.
Seborrhoeic Eczema
The most familiar type of seborrhoeic eczema is ‘cradle cap’ on the scalp of babies. Fortunately, this is not itchy and rarely continues as the child grows older. If this does continue, however, the condition can range from having a slightly flaky scalp to one that is very itchy and scaly. Aswell as the scalp, it may also be found in the folds of the skin, such as under the breasts, or in the groin area.
Varicous Eczema
This type of eczema is often seen in the elderly, as it is caused by poor circulation in the lower legs. It may be classified as ‘chronic’ as it is unlikely to disappear. Varicose eczema can be difficult to manage, as the skin of an elderly person is fragile and prone to breaking, which can result in ulceration of the legs.
Pompholyx
This is characterised by blisters on the hands and feet, which are very itchy. They can appear irregularly and, unfortunately, may remain for several weeks. As the blisters heal, and the skin dries out, cracks can appear on the skin that may become infected.
Contrary to many people’s belief, eczema is not contagious, but that does not prevent the sufferer from being self-conscious about their skin. Stress and anxiety are known to make the condition worse, so it becomes a vicious cycle unless it can be managed effectively. If eczema continues into adulthood, it is unlikely to go away completely, so it is important to develop a routine that controls the problem as much as possible.
