We had argued for the millionth time that week. We were heading into deep waters, something had to change. After hours of contemplating and analysing this change, I decided to send him a message containing everything I was feeling. Everything, the good, the bad and the very ugly. I am a stay-at-home mum raising three kids, two of which are under three, with a 20-month old age gap and a lot of energy. I am exhausted, as you can imagine. But on that morning when I poured my heart into a single viber message, the relief was instant. Because I had finally spoken up and somehow I knew I would be getting what I wanted: support.
A few pics and some words on what our little family has been up to these past few weeks including our Easter break.
I’ve began planning our annual Easter Egg painting sessions. I’ve researched a couple of ways I think I can get all kids involved, maybe even Danny who is 14 months old. Scroll down to find some inspiring ideas I have collected.
It’s OK to make mistakes. When I heard those words being spoken on a podcast I almost cried. It was such a revelation at that moment in my life, even though it’s nothing new.

Textile waste is a big problem worldwide. The numbers are astonishing, as you would imagine, making it something we all need to start tackling right now starting with the brand new cute t-shirts, adorable dresses, neon-coloured leggings and trendy shoes we love buying for our offspring. Children grow like weeds, twice a year they require a massive wardrobe overhaul that’s never cheap so it makes sense that many items can and should come from places like CoCoBee.
