It's his party and I'll cry if I want to...

So I sent out the invitations 6 weeks in advance. Decided to only invite the boys to have more of a boys party and to watch costs. Others have done it so it seemed reasonable. Researched all the local 'kid friendly' places. Decided on a science centre with a great play area  as well. A bit further away from the usual haunts - true - but still only about 15 mins extra. I decided not to book the local hall and bouncy castle. Thank god I didn't because only 4 boys from school are coming!  Read more >

My children's Nana made me a better child.

My mother is visiting from Canada; she arrived to help me after my hysterectomy which is nice but I must confess I was slightly dreading it. Our relationship has gone from childlike adoration to angry teenage outbursts and has moved into a caring but arms length, polite relationship. When my first born was almost three weeks late my mom had been there helping us get set up. My c-section was booked for 2pm. My mom decided to head home rather than stay and see him. It was a Friday and she had a dinner party planned.  Read more >

Has Becoming a Mom Made Me More Selfish?

volunteer

I used to volunteer at least once a week. From the age of 15, I found that volunteering was a great way to develop skills, meet new people and gosh darn it, it made me feel great! I have worked in youth detention facilities, taught in the mountains of Thailand, helped in the Commonwealth games, dressed women who were re-entering the workforce, and tutored kids in after school programs in poor parts of New Zealand. Yet since having children I have not volunteered for anything really.  Read more >

My son - the victim.

My 5 year old went to a birthday party and got picked on. Probably not the first time but it was the first time he was aware of it. He has red hair (no, mom, it's orange, why do people say that?) and socially he's just too keen, too low status, too bloody nice...he's not a wimp. He can play fight and rumble tumble, he can be silly and goofy. But he isn't mean. I have raised him to be a really nice kid. Not perfect but generally a thoughtful kid who cares about people's feelings. It might not last, maybe he'll be a dick later in life.  Read more >
