What can be worse than your own child stating: 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙞𝙙𝙣'𝙩 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙮 𝙢𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙮! 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙨𝙖𝙙 . 💔 It broke my heart in million pieces and I felt anxiety creep in. Slowly but surely. I started to beat myself up feeling guilty about not making her happy . 💔 She learned in pre school that is good to share your feelings and be honest about how things and people make you feel. They were introduced to EMOTIONS 🥰😊🙁 They were using any examples of what is going on in our daily life so they learn how we are responding to certain emotions. They had children look in the mirror and practice making mad/sad/happy faces . 🤷🏼‍♀️ I asked her how does she know how I made her feel and she showed me the faces: happy/sad/OK and asked me if I am happy, OK or sad. I told her I am happy and gave her a bug squeeze . ❤️ But see, there came the other side of the rainbow. There came the day when she just done everything backwards just to spite me. Everything I asked her to do welcomed me with a big NO and a tantrum. She refused any help trying to do everything by herself and although I am all for independence, I lost it properly. It was one of those days when you try to get out the house in time and everything is against you. It was the day when I felt anxious about everything and she felt me. SHE FELT HOW I FELT AND COULDN'T SETTLE. I got angry and she got angry. I cried and she cried. In the end she shouted at me: 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙞𝙙𝙣'𝙩 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙮 𝙢𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙮! 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙨𝙖𝙙 . 💔 I wanted to hide from the world and my own child. I wanted to try and let it all out. I felt horrible. I told my daughter I am sorry for making her sad and she just wiped my tears saying: IT'S OK MOMMY. IT WAS AN ACCIDENT . 💔 How can a three year old be so wise? 🤷🏼‍♀️ How could she just make it all better just like that? . #emotions #toddlersemotions #learningemotions #toddlerlife #babybutterfliesandcoffee #momlife #momstruggles
That's what a #booknerd looks like 📖😍 📚 She got "The Smartest Giant in Town" and "Stick Man" adding them to her Julia Donaldson collection 📚📚 and she made a beautiful "rainbow" out of books just for me This is one of those proper #proudmom moments here . I started reading to her when she was about a month old and it makes me so happy to see that my love for books has been successfully passed on 📖🤓 . Now, the thing is, she don't know how to read 🤷🏼‍♀️ so I have to do it every night. And from one story we get to two and before we know it I read about six - seven books and they don't even count on my @goodreads challenge . @waterstones is always our go to place because they put stamps on mummy's app and she gets points to add to her little #booktreat . . . #booknerd #toddler #toddlerbooks #motherdaughter #kidslovetoread
DESTINATION ZOOZEEUM or how we all call it here Science Museum . This little missy had such an incredible time yesterday discovering a different type of Museum. As we always took her to The National History Museum, she was expecting animals and was tinsy wincy disappointed at the beginning . Once we went inside the curiosity stroke. She was pretending to take pictures of everything and everyone. She loved pushing all buttons, learning of different generation machinery, planes, war ships but also human body . One of her favourites was the microscope observing blood cells and asking so many questions about it . Also, the communication bit was a success and we learned of how it all started. Through song and play . Definitely a destination if you want to entertain your little ones. Next time we will book tickets for the science lab and try some experiments . #londontrip #sciencemuseumlondon #motherdaughter #toddler #babybutterfliesandcoffee #blogpost #toddlerfun #motherhood
Christmas shopping ✔️ 🛒 Christmas presents ✔️ 🎄 Tired and rushing ✔️ 🤷🏼‍♀️ I am only waiting for this naught monkey to fall asleep so I can start wrapping all her Santa 🎅 gifts 💝🎁🎁🎁 . I opted for only two gifts this year but somehow I went again a bit over the board 🙊 . Christmas is only three days away but I can't seem to relax and breath. I am rushing here and there and still get the feeling that nothing has been done 🤷🏼‍♀️ . Anyone feels the same? 🙋🏻‍♀️ . Please tell me I am not the only one 🤷🏼‍♀️ . #momlife #christmas #christmaspresents #wrappingpresents #babybutterfliesandcoffee #motherdaughter #momlife #newpost #honestmotherhood #hotmama
🎄🎪🤹‍♀️ 🆆🅸🅽🆃🅴🆁 🆆🅾🅽🅳🅴🆁🅻🅰🅽🅳 and 🆉🅸🅿🅿🅾🆂 🅲🅸🆁🅲🆄🆂 here we were 🤹‍♀️🎪🎄 . 🤹‍♀️ I always went @hydeparkwinterwonderland and enjoyed the lights, mulled wine, good food and Christmas Carols with my friends, getting a bit tipsy , running to catch the last train home. I made incredible memories and never thought anything can beat them . 🤹‍♀️🎄 But there is something better than this. There is Winter Wonderland with a toddler. Seeing her smile going in the kiddy rides and clapping with joy at the acrobats from the @zippos_circus - all these 🥰 are the real fun. . 🤹‍♀️🎄 This little cheecky monkey made sure she will take advantage of the joy she brought and she managed to have popcorn and cookies and all treats possible . 🤹‍♀️🎄 Thank you 😘 to @hannah.alice.howell for treating us with the beautiful experience of the winter show from the Zippos Circus 🎪 and for the beautiful time we had together 😘 . 🎄🤹‍♀️🎪 #winterwonderland #zipposcircus2019 #friendship #motherdaughter #toddlerfun #babybutterfliesandcoffee #loveyou
Today was the first time she has ever been to Winter Wonderland and I tell you she is hooked forever. She already asking when are we going next 🎄🎉 . ⭐ I took so many pictures and they all show just how happy she was and what a perfect day we had . ❤️ And it was such a beautiful day and I felt so proud and my heart was filled with joy but I do have to say that as the day came to an end her tiny feet got tired 😬 . 🥰 She started crying 😢 and I had to carry her in my arms the entire walk home 👩‍👧 (so damn hard); she got fussy and although I got her to bed 🛌earlier than usual she took about two hours to fall asleep 🤷🏼‍♀️ . @hydeparkwinterwonderland was a complete success but try and argue with an overtired toddler 🙊🤦🏼‍♀️ . #motherdaughter #babybutterfliesandcoffee #winterwonderland #toddlerfun #beauty #myworld #lovelife #toddlerfun
