their entire time and energy to their kids (we salute you!), to those who work tirelessly to combine motherhood with a busy career. With that in mind,
we're delighted to say that, in this issue, we have a mum who has done both - very successfully! Recently named the Businesswoman of the Year at the Belfast Telegraph
Woman of the Year Awards, Shauna McCarney-Blair took a simple idea that was born out of her own children's dietary issues and turned it into a fantastic business - Heavenly Tasty Organics - that is already being sold in thousands of stores globally. Shauna tells MM how she combines business and motherhood (p8). As always, dads are never forgotten in MM...we know the vital role that
they play in family life...but in this issue dad Dean Woodland tells us how the love of his son has inspired him to face the challenges posed by his brain injuries (p10). Elsewhere in the magazine you can read about the challenges Ciara Moore
faced when she acted as birthing partner for her profoundly deaf sister (p12) and can try out Nicola Graimes' fantastic veggie recipes that will keep your child super healthy (p46). From birth plans (p4), to outdoor play (p62), to dyslexia (p44) to getting
