So yesterday I talked about persuading my girls to take nice pictures on Eid… here is the aftermath after ice-cream; barefoot handstands and football! Taking time out to explore your own freedoms and not being restricted by the exterior. When companies have a particular feel with their brand, sometimes doing something different reminds us ofContinue reading “Brands and Freedom”

Unusual moments of Teamwork
There aren’t many moments when you can have perfection in and out. This picture looks like it, the girls were dressed up for Eid but what we can’t capture in the picture is the rest of the scene. The commentary of me saying ‘let’s take photos before the playground’, ‘we’ve got a few more picsContinue reading “Unusual moments of Teamwork”
Taking Time to Grow
I don’t have green fingers at all. I grew up in the inner City so never really needed to learn about gardening. During lockdown, I’ve been encouraging my children to do some planting and look at the progress of their broad beans, still in pots but thriving. The one thing about the plants thriving isContinue reading “Taking Time to Grow”
Getting to know me
What an interesting time this career break has been so far. Alongside home-schooling, I decided to take on a Project that has always been a personal ambition. I have always thought of myself a great multi-tasker, a fantastic completer-finisher, but never did I realise how creative I naturally am leaving me relying on colleagues andContinue reading “Getting to know me”
Energised by the Little Things
Children have an innate curiousity and an interest in things we take for granted. As lockdown is starting to trap us in the four walls of our local area, it took a short walk to our local park to realise that sometimes we limit and confine ourselves. With children, everything is a new experience noContinue reading “Energised by the Little Things”

I’m naturally a busy-minded person having multiple search tabs in my brain and enjoying being able to move from one topic to the next-Continue reading “Being in the moment”
Fish Fingers and Waffles
‘Would you like fish fingers and waffles for your tea?’ said a loud voice behind me. It was a well meaning voice, a woman walking back from her place of work asking someone she shares her home with. It made me smile because at the moment, I am on a career break, which means IContinue reading “Fish Fingers and Waffles”
Being a Chicken mum
We have had a busy morning doing our usual park games, sandwiches in the park and back home by 13:00. I was flat out tired as I had spent the previous evening de-cluttering wardrobes after the girls had one to bed. My eldest asked me to run up the stairs to close her top buttonContinue reading “Being a Chicken mum”
#Diversity of Thought
So one of the words we are hearing these days from the industry is Diversity of Thought! In a family, with two children who are polar opposites, this is really true! Both my girls are absolutely different! My youngest woke me up this morning saying that she was worried as she had left her littleContinue reading “#Diversity of Thought”
Climbing the Rope Ladder
I was worried during the Covid19 lockdown stages about the following three things; How would my little one cope with her development despite not going to nursery and missing all of her friends? How would we get the eldest to do her school work as she is one who loves the outdoors but dislikes studying?Continue reading “Climbing the Rope Ladder”
