So, I guess my plan for this blog is to
document my travels as a parent. The good, the bad and the ugly! And yes there
will be plenty of ugly!!!!
There is way too much pretending about our
little angels and how wonderful they are. Well my little Tarquin sprouts
rainbows. Yeah, my kids too, usually after they’ve just eaten what seems like the
entire contents of the craft cupboard. Of course he sprouts rainbows, usually
glitter covered rainbows. Right before bed time. Just after his bath. So we
have to put him back in the bath to de-glitter, and usually his little brother
too, as he did just throw up all that glitter onto said little brothers head. Oh
the joys.
The reality of it is we are on first name
basis with the lady at the bottle shop.
I wanna be that voice of reality. Hey your kids look happy, well fed and no one’s killed anyone…. you’re
doing a great job!
I
do loads of craft with my kids…. mostly
because it keeps me sane. You know how they do craft in mental
institutions?
Well it’s kind of like that. I want to share some of that with you too.
And
show you that you don’t have to have a lot of time, space and money to
really
enjoy being with your kids and to do educational things with them
without them
even realising they are learning! You don’t have to be a Mensa
member to help your kids reach their full potential. And more
importantly, even if you're not great at it, your kids will think it's the
best god dam fairy they've ever seem...even if you were trying to make a
frog.
