A little more about Speechie
"I am lucky to be mum to seven gorgeous children, and I love spending my weekends watching their soccer matches or taking them to the beach or op shops, or just spending time talking, playing board games or helping with their homework. I love to read, swim and am a bit of a puzzle nerd in my (very little) spare time." - Caroline Salasinski
