now i know this blog might not be interesting to people, i mean for all i know no-one could read it, i decided to start this blog just to let people know a bit about me and my interests and because i like to write, to some it might not be interesting but hey i cant please everyone, and if you do read this (or your reading this post right now) then i would just like to say thank you for taking the time to sit and read what i have written.
Now i am sooooo excited because my youngest little monster turns six in two weeks..... SIX i cant believe it, seriously where does the time go?. Being a parent can be hard and stressful but yet so rewarding, first of all its amazing to think you can grow a tiny human being inside your body in the first place, then along comes this beautiful baby who is totally dependent on you to look after them, you put so much time and effort into taking care of them, you become tired, stressed if you are lacking sleep, close to pulling your hair out at times, but when that child looks at you and smiles its amazing, your a mummy, your a daddy to this little person and that little person's love for you is so pure, your their hero. To watch your child do something you have taught them, say something you have taught them or use their manners that you have taught them, makes you feel like your on top of the world and when thy call you mummy or daddy for the first time or say they love you, its amazing, no amount of money or achievement could ever match the feeling you get inside from them words. and if your not a parent yet then nieces, nephews even baby cousins who may look up to you or who your close to can offer the same feelings, like your heart could literally burst!!! My little lady is so grown up now she ain't a baby anymore but she still likes her cuddles, she sat on my knee the other day and snuggled in and i smelt the top of her head and it was like her newborn baby smell, her own unique smell and it was so comforting. I know i'm not crazy when i say their own unique smell, just like each child looks different they have their own smell, i remember when i used to work in a nursery i could pick up a jumper and smell it and be able to tell which child it belonged to ha ha. She is having a party for her birthday too the joys of looking after 16 5-6 year old's!!! we are having it at a party place though so i'm glad i will have help, its just trying to keep the parents that decide to stay entertained, can be pretty awkward when its school friends parent because besides the school run i never really talk to them much ha ha.
Once her birthday is over i have to think about Christmas, i'm actually so excited my two still believe in Santa so i can do the whole Christmas letters and Christmas eve box surprise for them, this year i'm also doing something different. ill tell u what i usually do, I send off for personalized Christmas letters from Santa and save them, i then put together a Christmas eve box, last year it had a note from Santa to say that they have been very good and deserved a little treat before Christmas day it was left on the doorstep after a knock at the door, it had their letters in alongside this personalized note, hot chocolate, magic milk straws, (turn a normal glass of milk into chocolate milk), popcorn, reindeer dust with a poem on to sprinkle outside before bed so the reindeer can find their way to you and two dvds one Christmas one and one that was Santa's favorite. This year i'm doing something extra, ill still do the Christmas eve box but this year they will receive a parcel on the the 1st of Dec, it will again have a letter from Santa but it will have 24 wrapped presents, these are books they will be able to open one every night before bed and read it with mummy or daddy. We also do letters to Santa, we send them off (to nana) and she sends them a written one back.
Love all the craft things to do at Christmas too, ill share some on here closer to the time along with the reindeer dust recipe
i relize this is a log post so i will stop rambling and wrap it up, thank you for reading and i will try post sooner
