This kind, funny and strong-willed bundle of energy turned 2 today! 🥳 Here, he’s enjoying his first ride on a carousel and it was one of the sweetest things I’ve ever watched. 😍

In December I wrote a review of 2019 for friends and family and announced my word for 2020: patience.
Little did I know that I’d be needing so much of it this year, and it’s only May! 🙈😬
Do you have a ‘personal word of the year’ and if so, how has the pandemic changed its perspective?

We would have travelled to Cambridge today but we have scones and tea and even clotted cream, so it’s all good. 🙏
I’m also thanking my past self for taking all these wisteria photos when I could. I just can’t miss the season of #wisteriahysteria! 😆

We cancelled our trip to Cambridge for obvious reasons, so I’m reliving spring through last year’s photos. 🌸
There’s more on the blog and also some information on how to find the quiet spots in Cambridge. Not that we need to look out for them now but I’m sure Cambridge will be busy as ever very soon! 🙏

I have been a stay-at-home mum for almost two year

I have been a stay-at-home mum for almost two years and whilst I know that it’s a privilege, it can also be overwhelming. When we moved back to Germany I suddenly didn’t have my network of (mum) friends and usual play groups anymore and it felt quite isolating at times. So I thought I’d share three simple things that kept and still keep me sane when spending all day with a toddler at home. I hope they’re useful for some of you too.
1. Toy rotation ~ Put a few toys away and switch them out for others after a couple of days or weeks. It’s like Christmas every time you give back a long forgotten toy.
2. Housework activities ~ Including your toddler in housework tasks means you can get things done whilst they can be helpful and play their part in normal family life, which toddlers actually love.
3. Video calls ~ Arrange video calls with friends or family members. It’s good to talk to an adult for a change when you’re spending all day with a toddler!
~ End of parenting advice 🙋🏻‍♀️☺️

The next few weeks are not going to be easy but my

The next few weeks are not going to be easy but my hope is that we remain respectful and empathetic, that we embrace the slower days at home and care for those who are most vulnerable.
And also, #springhassprung 🌼🙃
