This happened this weekend. Our baby got a bed. I This happened this weekend. Our baby got a bed. It was time. She has figured out how to climb in - dangerous - but not out. And it was hard. Because it meant a lot of things. We had to pack the cot away. Last time, we knew in a few weeks, it would be ready for another baby. This time we had to disassemble it, not sure if another baby of ours would sleep in it. It was the end of a chapter in the life our child. It was an admission that our baby was not a baby anymore. And that in itself was hard. I suffered from postnatal depression in the first 6 months of her life. And I remember very little about those months. I have had to almost grieve the time lost. So I'm not ready for her to grow up yet. But such is life! And how blessed we are to have children that are growing and healthy! Praise the Lord! #newbed #biggirlbed #cot #baby #toddler #change #transition #newchapter #newbeginnings #sadness #timetochange #growth #growingup #slowdowntime #momblogger #momblog #mommyblogger #mommyblog #samomblogs #samommyblogger #wearingallmyhats
Older had her first Baker Day at 'school' this wee Older had her first Baker Day at 'school' this week. We are learning about our bodies so we conveniently pulled out the few cookie cutters we own other than butterflies, flowers and hearts and oh! Would you look at that! Hands, feet and happy faces. We had some "Mommy Special Time" making them well after her bed time and having a late night snack. One happy little girl! #bakerday #mommytime #bonding #preciousmoments #mommydaughter #cookies #biscuits #baking #bake #latenightsnack #mommyblogger #mommyblog #momblog #momblogger #samomblogs #samommyblogger #wearingallmyhats
My prayer for my eldest has been empathy. That she My prayer for my eldest has been empathy. That she would recognise the needs, desires and emotions of others. That she would love others above herself. I've witnessed a few moments this past week where she cared for the needs and desires of her sister. She got her step from the bathroom and put it next to the couch so her sister could climb up without needing my help. She fetched toys for her sister first and then herself. And then they continued to play happily. On another occasion, they both had been given a bowl of Smarties. When her younger sister declared that hers were "gone!" our little Older went over to Younger and dropped some of her own precious Smarties into her sister's bowl. No prompting. I realised in these moments that the Lord has heard and answered my prayers. #answeredprayers #empathy #compassion #prayer #children #kids #sisters #momblogger #mommyblogger #mommyblog #momblog #samomblogs #samommyblogger #wearingallmyhats
SO...It's been a crazy day! I have 5 preschoolers SO...It's been a crazy day! I have 5 preschoolers running around my house for the next 8 weeks. With their play group closed before it even began #thankscovid we've decided to give these kiddies a taste of structure, socialisation and leaving parents (well, except mine!) before 'big' school next year! If I'm a bit scarce for the next 8 weeks, that's why! #homeschool #school #kids #kiddies #preschool #preschoolteacher #prek #teacher #mom #mother #home #mommyblogger #mommyblog #sahmlife #momblog #momblogger #samomblogs #samommyblogger #wearingallmyhats
I think we often hinge our value and worth on how I think we often hinge our value and worth on how our kids are turning out. When they mess up, we think we've failed. When they do well, we think we're the best. Either way, if that's where our identity is, we will hit problems. We need to find our value in what gives us value - God! #value #worth #meaning #identity #god #jesus #life #children #mom #motherhood #mother #mommy #mommyblogger #momblogger #mommyblog #momblog #samomblogs #samommyblogger #wearingallmyhats
Recently the girls have been doing independent pla Recently the girls have been doing independent play together. It's at least 45 mins they play with one another. I have loved seeing how they have bonded over the last few months. They chat to each other, copy one another and giggle together. The older teaches the younger to say 'Peter Pan', 'Captain Hook' and 'Wendy'. Younger walks into a room and says "Hi!" to older. Their bond makes my mommy heart all warm and fuzzy! #20monthsapart #siblings #sisters #love #siblinglove #independentplay #kids #children #sahm #sahmomlife #mommyblogger #momblogger #mommyblog #momblog #samomblogs #samommyblogger #wearingallmyhats
