Impressive daddy

Daughter realised that the photos in our house of a man riding a mountain bike are actually daddy: "Impressive daddy, you have to bow to him now!"

😳 😂

No.

Sound bath

Son just gave me the most beautiful sound bath with my tongue drum, and asked me "does it sound like the stars are singing?" My incredible, precious child. ❤️ ⭐

Third tooth

Son is now three teeth down. He's going to be rich by the end of the year!!

Big little hearts

"I luv you mama" - ❤️❤️❤️ my daily notes from my boy. They sometimes include "dadee" too. 🥰 Sunshine and flowers and handprints and love from the girlie too. Things that make life more beautiful. 🙏

Small child achievements

Daughter chose to do counting at bedtime instead of being read to. She had six magnets and kept adding and taking them away. She was fascinated that 3+3 and 1+5 and 2+4 all equal 6. Was so amazing to watch her process.

Son apparently did 5 miles mountain biking in the forest with daddy today.

I'm so impressed with the pair of them. ❤

International Women's Day

First person to buy me daffodils on Women's Day was my dad, when I lived in Croatia when I was 14. Found a bunch of daffodils, a card and a bottle of drink on my  doorstep, anonymously left there. Such a kind and thoughtful thing to do and so welcome at this time. It's been a very hard few months and the words in the card boosted me so much.

Happy International Women's Day, all you awesome women I know. Today's the day to enjoy and celebrate the parts of you that make you a wonderful woman...then repeat every single day for the rest of your life. 🙏❤️😘

Going rate for fairies

Not quite there yet, but wondering what the going rate for tooth fairies is these days. And whether there is still a different price for normal teeth and molars.

(Son has made a house big enough for the fairy and her friends and toys, and says he'll leave some money out for her in case she's running low for herself 😍)

Staying healthy

My 82 year old dad has just been jogging. A short one, but jogging nonetheless. Am very impressed and proud of his efforts!

The definition of love

I love this. A definition of love: "The will to extend one's self for the purpose of nurturing one's own or another's spiritual growth."

While the last five years of motherhood have been damn hard, I have grown more than I knew I needed to. My love for them and theirs for me. Each and every person that I have loved or has loved me, has enabled me to grow in ways I was previously blind to.
