It’s the summer holidays and I’ve been solo parenting my two kids. Fuck off Garmin. #parenting #summerholidays #garmin

Proud parent moment, my 9yo and I made sushi together.

Such a proud moment to hear your toddler exclaim “no, it’s my body. No one can touch my body if I say no”

Frustratingly, it’s to my husband trying to clean marmite off her face, but it’s still a win.

I have a baby chick in my pocket. This is my life, and I love it.

To those of you in the early days of a relationship, if you think flowers and “good morning” texts are romantic, just wait until you hear your husband doing battle with your 2 year old whilst she screeches “but I don’t want mummy to have a shower in peace!”

Toddler: Mummy, what’s that?
Me: err, it’s called Baileys. It’s a grown-up drink.
Toddler: I like Baileys
Me: no, you wouldn’t like it. It’s…..spicy? Isn’t it Daddy?
@harrybo@gamerstavern.online as he sips his own: Yes, yes, very spicy.
Toddler: oh…ok. I don’t like spicy.

My brain seems to have worked through the 78 or so different hobbies that I’ve got interested in, researched / bought the stuff for, and then got bored of and so now I seem to have come full circle and come back to the idea of taking up knitting again.

I learned to cast on and do a basic row last time, enough to make a small square, so I’m this time I can maintain my interest it long enough to make a pair of toddler sized socks. 🤞🏻

It’s probably something gross like the smell of burning dust (which in turn is obviously gross dead skin flakes etc) but I’m going to say it anyway:

I love the smell of the central heating going on for the first time.

Um so, I’m really bad for having earworms, and often hum them without realising. And now I’m in the situation where my 2yo daughter specifically requests me to sing/play the “Spiderman Pizza song”

She finds it hilarious.

4am knitting and hot Ribena.
