I'm here to help light up the darkness, inspire, and help other mums feel seen and less alone through my musings on life, motherhood, and mental health, intertwined with my faith and grief. This is a space for REAL motherhood - the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly. Here, I promise to be open, vulnerable, and honest.
Here, you are seen, and you are heard.
Last month, I shared a post with suggestions on how to support children through grief and loss. One of those suggestions was to be honest in age-appropriate ways, and we found a great way to do this was through books. There are so many options out there, so I've decided to share some of our favourite children’s books on grief and loss to hopefully cut the overwhelm and help you find a suitable one.
When we think about grief, we often picture adults. But grief is not reserved for just us grown-ups. Children grieve too. The tricky thing about grief in children is not only may it be delayed, it also may not look like adult grief.
Now, I don’t know about you, but I find that having a kid’s party can be quite a costly affair! Throw in a theme, and that can not only make things even more expensive, but harder to plan as well! So, to make your life easier, I’m going to give you some of my top budget-saving tips when it comes to planning and styling my kids’ birthday parties!
We talk about eating a balanced diet, but most of us have grown up in an era where there is a stigma on body image and consuming carbohydrates, fats, and calories. It’s led to the impression that sugar (treats/desserts) are “bad” or something that needs to be earned. From a health perspective, this could lead to a damaging relationship with treats, and poor self-control when it comes to consuming them.
