Happiness is one area that I strive to have a little of everyday.

Little People have BIG Feelings If I had a dollar for every person in the past couple of months who has said to me “Kids are resilient … they adapt easily … don’t worry about it” I could probably retire. In mid-November we moved “home” to Sydney after a 16 month stint in Melbourne. My husband and I really looked forward to returning to our good friends and the house we had worked hard to renovate … [Read more...]

I Want to Runaway There are days that I just want to runaway. I want to runaway from the voice in my head. I want to run from the mess in my house. I want to run and just be on my own.

What Fear are you afraid of unconsciously teaching your child? I have an irrational fear of spiders. I have no idea what started my fear, I never remember it not being there. I can still remember an occasion when I would have been about eight years old or so and my mother was very sick in bed so I was watching TV in the lounge room by myself, when a hand sized huntsman crawled out from behind the … [Read more...]

"Next Time, There Won't Be A Next Time" Time, where does it go? This time last year I said I'd be organised, I would have everything bought and wrapped by September, it didn't happen - it never does. Time slips through my life at what seems an incredibly fast past. I'm constantly in disbelief, school pick up seems to be only an hour after I've dropped off, a three hour client appointment feels … [Read more...]
