What job would you do for free? I've always been passionate about holistic education and how a young person can be prepared for the world. Any job that involves some form of coaching, mentoring, guiding of children, most especially those in Junior and Senior High school will be a job I'd do for free. In… Continue reading I’m kind of doing that already 😃
Fun? What is fun to a mother?
List five things you do for fun. This is such a fun question, because really, do mothers even have the time (and permission) to have fun? Anyway, this year, I've decided to be more conscious about doing things for me. So let's see if I can get 5 on the list! Read more - This… Continue reading Fun? What is fun to a mother?

Photo by How Far From Home on Pexels.com Can you share a positive example of where you've felt loved? Before I dive in, I decided to take part in this year's Bloganuary so I can get back to writing, hence this almost random post! Alright!

And then there were 3!
How am I even a mother of 3? Aren't I still a child? 😆 Last September, we welcomed a baby girl to the family! I've had people say, oh, the girl you were longing for...was that really the case? Well, no and yes. In that order. Wanna know more? I have a story for you,… Continue reading And then there were 3!
Happy 3rd Birthday, Theodore
My dear Theodore, Happy birthday! I know you would read this one day. I don't think I doubt it. Or do I? This year has been quite the year. Two years ago, I had no idea. Last year, I was just getting used to it. But this year...we've walked through and come this far. From… Continue reading Happy 3rd Birthday, Theodore
New Things are Mine!
Asempa and new things! He literally lives for them and believes every new thing no matter how small or big is his. He comes from school one afternoon, sees a new bag we've bought for my Ayemye because Ayemye's bag is torn and concludes the bag is his. We told him it was for his… Continue reading New Things are Mine!
Toddler Love and Appreciation
Last week, I did something for Asempa and he said his usual "Thank you, Mummy," and then added, "You're my hero!" In that moment, I felt like all my worries and stresses of life were over. That become the standard format of appreciation for the rest of the week and it never ceased to have… Continue reading Toddler Love and Appreciation
I want to see the sad
On our good nights, we read our children's Bible right before sleeping. When we started, I'll read every word of one Bible story. With time, I realised Asempa prefers to listen to several stories rather than one story so he'll interrupt while I'm reading and want to pick a new story. I decided from that… Continue reading I want to see the sad
How I Weaned my Toddlers off Breast Milk
Breastfeeding was a big thing for me when I gave birth to my boys. Once I read that breastmilk is the best source of nutrition for the first six months of life, I was committed to do my best to breastfeed exclusively during that period. I almost hit the six month mark for both of… Continue reading How I Weaned my Toddlers off Breast Milk
He held my hand when he was ready
I'm the kind of mother who believes in allowing our kids to be ready for something without "forcing" them. You may have noticed this when I talked about how I toilet-trained my first born. Now, this isn't something that started when I became a mother. I have had it in me for the longest time.… Continue reading He held my hand when he was ready
