precious ones

i love my precious family so much .. sometimes it hurts
life is good right now - the kids are at a stage that is enjoyable - while utterly exhausting, demanding and chaotic, they are so very precious - they can listen, understand and reason (to some extent!)- they are curious, playful, adventurous, creative, interesting, funny and fun. they love to play with each other... which gives me a little breathing space here and there as well as so much joy...
day trips and outings are fun and easier... we don't have to worry about naps and snacks as much... can be a bit more carefree... and hoping it won't be too much longer until we're nappy freee..
maybe it's time to have another baby and be plunged back in to total exhaustion, mayhem and insanity.
having said all that i currently have a screaming, hungry, tired 2 year old by my side with a nappy full of poo and i'm feeling guilty because there has been too much shouting & chaos in the house today... not all roses after all... better go.. no recipes today.

      thank you Grace. I almost changed the name when my blog became focused on cooking because i didn't think having 'poo' in the title of a cooking blog was very tasteful... or really said what the blog was about. but you're right it kind of captures life with little ones.. and there is a lot of dealings with poo!! thanks for visiting. x

    The Mini Mes are a little older at 6 and 8 and although I haven't had tantrums, nappies, naps etc in many years I do get lots of sulking, slamming doors and shouting still! They generally play so well together though and like you say it's a nice breather when they do! x
