Tips on how to understand why we do what we do
I was having a chat with a friend the other day about who we are, what we do like, what we don’t like, and thought that maybe it was time for me to ‘come out’ about what I am all about? We all judge something. But it’s different for all of us. Some of us […]
Wow, this week was a crazy week! Children’s nappies leaked twice and whole beds and duvets needed washing, babies puked, I bumped my car (ouch!), and I daftly scheduled Little Dimples vaccinations. In the meantime technology was not loving me, things kept going wrong and my computer was on a go slow. I was only […]
I’m a fan of ‘hello’ and ‘goodbye’, in fact since having kids I’ve become a big fan of manners. It’s not until you see a young 2-5yr old mimic an adults behaviour that you really realise how rude or uncaring or unattractive certain types of behaviour are. Ironically, it’s not that I actually take umbrage […]
So here it is, ta da <big drum roll in background>! I’ve been hinting at an exciting announcement coming today and here it is. It’s funny, this is the end result of 6 months of planning and hard-work, I really hope that you will enjoy it and encourage your friends to join in .. I […]
I’m not a fan of New Year Resolutions. On Jan 1st we tend to be knackered, broke, and there’s a hell of a lot of pressure associated to them. Plus, most people fall off the bandwagon within a few days/weeks. At the end of last year I panicked because I was meant to be launching […]
So I have mentioned in a post a few weeks back that Curly Headed Boy wasn’t very happy in reception (first year of school). Last week I explained how I had tackled one of the problems, which is that he often feels overly criticised by the children in his class. So, I thought I would […]
I’ve mentioned in a previous post that Curly Headed Boy is struggling with his first year at school a little, but we have a plan in place to work on it, and I promised to mention the different things I try, so here is one of them: He happens to be on a table with […]
We are a bit like plants, and our children are too. Some environments help us to blossom, and some are more of a struggle. Put us in the right soil, with exactly the right amount of cold, heat, and water, and we’ll take off like a tree and blossom amazingly. Put us in a place […]
I’m not here! I’m very excited to say I’ve done my first ever guest post over at Aly’s ‘Plus 2.4’ blog for her ‘Breast Mates’ posts. The reason why I like her posts is because they show how amazingly different the experience is for everyone, and don’t push the ‘everything else is wrong’ attitude which […]
I learnt something about myself the a few days ago. I learnt why I have such a strong feeling about evolution of a person needing to follow a natural rhythm, rather than be forced or pushed. Have you wondered where your beliefs come from sometimes? There has always been one place where I differed from […]
