      Parenting: What I (un)learned in the first two years

      Parenting

      cardboard toys

      Parenting
      Newest obsession: toys made from cardboard. Because they're simple, beautiful, storable and disposable. Recyclable, even! We're trying hard to live with less, but it's a struggle to let go - [...]

      more notes for my daughter

      Parenting
      Let her learn from my mistakes, please. Part one here. Be you. The world will adjust. Say no to the things you don't want to do - you don't need an excuse. Eat junk food while your [...]

      Parenting

      all wrapped up

      Parenting
      A little ode to babywearing - one of the few parenting tips I offer to any new/expectant parents I meet. Not that I know all the answers, but because the stretchy sling I bought before Orla was [...]

      in Orla’s bag

      Parenting
      Not the ubiquitous 'what's in my bag' post (crushed baby crisps, used tissues & the same novel I've been reading for the last 7 months, of course!), but Orla's bag, a snapshot of her little [...]

      baby changing

      Parenting
      A strange sadness, to leave the house Orla knows so well. She's splashed in this bath since her very first week; she knows which wobbly floorboards to skip, as she leads my by the hand to bed. [...]

      Imperfectly

      Parenting & Personal

      mother’s day

      Parenting & Personal
      I found her under a gooseberry bush, which is a euphemism of course for a labour so painful I really-actually thought I was going to die. I did not find childbirth spiritual or beautiful. [...]

      One

      Parenting
      She is one. This seems completely impossible, but the calendar confirms is is true. She sleeps snuggled close to one of us in our big bed. She likes to tuck her feet around against my tummy for [...]
