Three and a half. She likes dinosaurs, twirly dresses, astronauts, jumping in puddles, singing, ghosts, buses, firetrucks/ambulances/police cars, makeup, jumping on the couch and babies.

Mabyn: A Party and a Love Letter
I'm not sure how it happened, but somehow I now have a one year old. Each year on their birthdays, I write to my beautiful babies. This is Mabyn's first write up, I hope one day she reads it and knows how much she means to me. Mabyn, I’ve spent the last 365 days loving …
‘It Takes A Village’
I read a really beautiful piece written by a woman this morning. You can (and should!) read it here. She talked about her experience growing up surrounded by a group of female friends. Best friends, sleepovers, perfume sampling together, doing everything together really. Then moving away to a big city in her 20s and forming …

It’s Sunday & I’m Stuck

MABYN, LATELY

Heaven at 9:41 AM
My sweet baby girl was having trouble falling asleep for her nap this morning. She's been a near perfect baby, and when things don't go effortlessly it's easy for me to get impatient. To loose sight of the fact that she's only 10 months old. 10 months old. I'm 26 years old and no where …
The Comfort In The Chaos
It was the middle of the afternoon and the sun was pouring into my living room. I lay on the couch with Mabyn beside me feeling the warmth. "Ahh-bwuuhh, ahh-bwuuhh" is her favourite thing to say right now, she looks at me as she says it and I'm pretty sure she means it as a …
“What’s Wrong With Calling Girls Beautiful? Of Course They’re More Than Just That!”
Well yeah...you, as an adult, know this to be true. A little girl told over and over again that she's beautiful may not realize that she's many other things too. Especially if she's not told otherwise. I've seen this image pop up a few times on Facebook recently: I don't think people that tell little girls …
