Potty Training During Lockdown

During this unprecedented time, I wanted to do something positive and put focus on something other than bad news, so I decided it was a good time to potty train my two-and-a-half-year-old son. My husband and I have attempted to potty train him before, but literally gave up in a matter of hours after pee...

Challenges of Parenthood

This is basically the foundation of my blog, and there have been MANY challenges in my parenting journey, and still continues...

Christmas /Goodbye 2019/ Thank You

The F Word… How To Deal With Swearing / Cursing

What Do You Want To Read About?

With so many "Mum Blogs" out there, it's not always easy to be unique. Yes, I talk about things from my perspective, which may be helpful, and reassuring to other parents. But lately I have found myself thinking about what do people really want to read about. As most bloggers I have many ideas, with...

Life’s Been Busy

It's been almost a month since i've posted and i'm sorry. Daily life has taken over and i have found myself with barely anytime to think or write. It was my son's second birthday a month ago today, and planning and organising took over. I still can't believe how fast two years have past, and my...
