How Can We Set a Good Example to Our Children?
When you bring a child into the world, there’s a lot of pressure to do things right. We all want our children to grow up happy, healthy and productive members of society, and the way we raise them when they’re little has a huge impact on what their thoughts and views, personality and goals are likely to be later on. None of us are working to a rule book, and when it comes to parenting we’re all just winging it and doing the best we can. This isn’t to say any of us need to be perfect because perfection doesn’t exist, however, there are a few things within our control…

Why I chose to be a work at home mum
Before I had kids I always imagined myself as a career woman. Over the years I moved from one job to another depending on where I lived. I worked as Human Resources Specialist, Warehouse Manager and in my last field as a full time job in Supply Chain Management. When my youngest was born and we moved closer to my parents I knew that none of the jobs mentioned above was possible. Thankfully, I already started to have a little bit of income through this blog which help greatly for a mum of two young children with her husband working away. However, at the moment advertising and sponsored posts through my…

The latest about this single married mother
Summer is here for sure now. Most days we have around 30 degrees and at lunch time when the sun is at its hottest we hide behind the curtains with the air conditioning on. This is when I wish their dad was still here. He is way more entertaining than I am and more full of life. I am so boring these days…I don’t even do that much crafting with the girls anymore. I was getting there a couple of months ago just after my gallbladder operation. I think I was slightly happier than usual and was even starting to look after myself – regular trips to the salon for…

Parenting Pin-It Party #128
Halloween is at the end of this week so I bet that you are all preparing in some way or another for it. Although I didn’t “celebrate” as such before I had the girls I am now preparing for two Halloween parties for the end of the week.

Parenting Pin-It Party #119
We are slowly approaching cooler days and although it makes me feel sad that the summer is almost finished I am looking forward to the autumn days. I was born in the autumn and it’s my favourite seasons of all. For me is when the start of new beginnings – a new school year, a year older for me and my husband. This week I am hosting the #pinitparty and have to say I am looking forward to see all your crafts and autumny posts. It was Helen’s turn to host but she is still on holiday. “Waves! Have fun lovely!” Out of last weeks entries I decided that my favourite…
