I noticed today how high you come up at my side. You are growing and growing and those body-slam-hugs you like to give me at hometime are going to knock me over one day! I noticed today your freckles and how many you have. When did they appear? For a long time, you only had… Continue reading I Noticed Today
I welcomed the new year with my oldest dear friends as we all squished into our house for a New Year weekend of fun; I connected with friends for dinner, and coffee and I even managed to FaceTime with my brother! My word of the year has already made an impact. I made a list… Continue reading Five Lovely Things about January
A while back, I wrote about the beauty of keeping a ta-dah list, one that notes all the accomplishments of the day (as opposed to a regular to-do list which can sometimes sit in judgment of you for the whole day as you blithely ignore it).

The days are either crawling by at an unprecedented snail's pace or flying by in a forgettable blur. I can't actually believe it is Saturday already and yet last weekend seems like an age ago.

Ever since having Austin, I have the disconcerting feeling that I have lost my nerve. From inconsequential things like not being able to go down a high slide at Bewilderwood to more significant anxieties around returning to work, dealing with a lot of noise and sometimes even being in crowded places. Generally, I am much… Continue reading Losing my Nerve
Today was my last day at work before starting my maternity leave. It was a teacher training day which was actually pretty useful with a particularly uplifting and interesting session with our behaviour consultant Victor Allen who is a complete legend. He has such a calming presence and he also reminds us that above… Continue reading An End and a Beginning
