Valerie continued to amaze me. How she juggled everything was a mystery. Every mail shot that went out had up-to-date pictures of us guys in the band. She still managed her own business by doing monthly photoshoots and provided all our official press images herself.
We had taken on a new alternative rock band to our record label after they had supported us previously, and Valerie had done all their publicity shots as well.
So the band and the businesses went from strength to strength, and apart from running RedA, Valerie still found time to be the best mother to our son, Liam. And for me, that instant love a father has when he holds his child for the first time had grown inside with each passing month of his development, and in celebrating each new milestone he achieved.
