The Ordinary Moments – Mummy Kisses

Little O is at the age where he likes to run around, play, explore. With that comes the inevitable trip, or bang. In the seconds immediately after a bump I can see O trying to process what’s just happened and deciding whether it’s bad enough to cry or if it’s just a sulking moment. Either way it requires some mummy attention. One of the great things about 2 year olds is that they believe mummy kisses are magic. They have the ability to make everything better. So when my son has hurt himself he heads over “mummy kiss me” and…

Love Is….

Love Is… I’m a little late joining in with the Love Is tag started by My Petit Canard, but as my husband and I are celebrating a belated Valentines Day tomorrow, it seems appropriate for us for me to post it now. Here goes, for our family Love Is… 1. Having my travel mug cup of tea waiting for me when I come downstairs in a morning. 2.

Funnily enough, I’d been thinking about the book a few weeks ago but hadn’t been able to remember what it was called. Watched…

Melt Your Heart Moments #2

I may have mentioned this before but my little boy loves balls! He was kicking a football before he could walk, he’d shuffle round the floor on his bum kicking a ball as he went. As soon as he turned two we signed him up for Rugbytots for the following term as we thought it would be something he would love. We were right! It’s the highlight of his week, especially as it’s his quality time with his Daddy. He had his third class last week and he’s making amazing progress (I know, I’m a bit biased but he is…
