I have this friend. She is amazing. I have a few friends who are amazing but I will just tell you about one today. Here’s why. Her realm of whats possible to do is so much bigger than mine, so it always amazes me. “How can you do that ?” I always think. “Is that …

Happy Mama, Whinny Mama
What a day! We had a great time at heritage Park with our friends who are visiting here from Hong Kong. The kids went on all the rides a few times before the line ups were there. The boys love hanging out with the 2 girls, who are around the same age as my older …
I’m over it.
I just bought my eldest some t-shirts today, size 10-12. He’s not 10 yet, 8 but you know how they are always bigger than the sizes. I wasn’t sad at all that he’s growing up, quit excited in fact. Each stage is so fun and each age unlocks many more things we can do with …
Efed Up
Day 1 on the job and I have already messed up. Glad to have that out of the way for the rest of the summer. Now I can parent and work relaxed knowing that I am human and I have already efed up so there’s nothing to fear. The worst has already happened. Sure enough …

Summer Planning
You really do need to plan MORE in summer and FOR summer. The bigger the chunk of ‘free’ time you have the more you have to plan. I keep saying it over and over again and I keep finding more and more proof for it. I spent almost 2 hours yesterday morning getting help from …
I trust the process of life.
For people who are anxious a lot and feel that tense feeling in their stomach, here’s what helped me a lot back when I first started out. I read Louise Hay’s book called “You can heal your life” and it changed my relationship with myself. It taught me to have my own back and to …
8 kids
Can you host a playdate without getting stressed out before and after? YEP. I just hosted a total of 8 kids (4 of which are mine), and I was cool as a cucumber all throughout the prep, the tidy up, the getting kids to help out, all throughout the time at the playground with 8 …
