I’m going to go ahead and assume that mostly women visit and read this blog therefore there is absolutely no need for a post called Valentines Gifts for Her. One called Valentines Gifts for HIM on the other hand would be warmly welcomed. Am I right?
So (with papa in mind) here’s a list of some alternative V Day gifts that won’t break the bank and you can definitely make happen by Sunday.
2. Times my children want to talk to me. Too funny.
3. I think I’m an outgoing introvert.
4. I had never heard this version of Suspicious Minds.
5. Garlic and asparagus and mushrooms. Oh my!
6. Might be attending this event in Nicosia. You should come too. Its called My Body, My Journey, My Birth.
But the cereal aisle. Man! Completely different situation.
In fact it may actually be far worse than the sweet aisle. The colourful packaging, the chocolate coating, the superheroes and the princesses and all that hidden sugar. And then of course comes the inevitable question: ‘But mummy its breakfast cereal! It’s not sweets! Why can’t I have it?’
Seeing as this was a one-night vacation and we only had a few hours to ourselves we did what all parents on their own would do. We walked hand-in-hand along the beachfront, stayed up late and slept in. Obviously. We also grabbed some great grub at the Limassol Marina and put our feet up at the Londa Hotel, which was heaven.
The lights were turned down low and the room was cosy and warm. Candles were lit and a sweet aroma filled the air. If it weren’t for the effects of this calm environment I would have been jumping for joy. Because I was about to get a pregnancy massage!
I take care of my body as much as I can. Being a person and a mother who, on occasion, experiences intense neck and back pains I feel its my duty to do whatever I can to make sure I’m as pain-free as possible. But then I go and get myself pregnant and all of a sudden I’m getting strange aches in my shoulders and legs and ooh-ing and aah-ing every time I bend over to help Georgie put his shoes on. Suffice to say I’m not happy.
