This Quiet

littlesnippets — Thu, 10 Nov 2022 12:41:42 +0000

The children are at school, the house is quiet. For years I thought I wanted this quiet, I craved it, and I still sometimes do. When the house is loud, the mess is overwhelming, I still find myself longing for quiet. When sticky hands are everywhere, too many screens are making too many sounds and […]

To The Mum Who Has Lost Herself

To the mum who has lost herself, I hope you’re okay. I’m writing this today because I’ve been in your shoes. I’ve been in that place where I feel I’ve given everything to my children and had nothing left for myself. I’ve sat, and cried because I didn’t even know who I was anymore. But […]

There Is Nothing ‘Just’ About Being A Mum

littlesnippets — Wed, 15 Sep 2021 19:11:37 +0000

Whenever anyone asks me what I do I say ‘Oh, I’m just a mum’. As if there needs to be more to it than that. As if being a mum isn’t a valid use of my time and energy. Why do I do it? I don’t know, but I do know that it’s not just […]

Starting School In A Global Pandemic

littlesnippets — Sun, 20 Sep 2020 20:36:45 +0000

School – the great unknown. The big wide world I knew I wouldn’t ever be ready for my daughter to discover. The care of someone else that I didn’t want to ever hand her over to. I’d been wondering how it would all be for a few years now. I don’t think any parent can […]

Like most people in the UK, I’m spending a lot of time at home right now. But the difference between myself and a lot of those people, is that I’m quite used to being at home! We love to get out and about but as a stay at home mum to two under three, I’ve […]
