Storytime: I love you even on the days you give me a hard time
Hello and welcome to my blog. I’m going to try to keep this short, in between trying to get my son to brush his teeth and go to bed. It’s almost 10 pm now on a Wednesday and im exhausted. I had a productive day today. Yesterday I made a TikTok account again (I made […]

Storytime: My son begged me to let him stay home today
Hello reader and welcome to my blog! I’m back to saving blog posts for later because not saving ended up in me not reading, but in order to not overwhelm myself, I’m saving 1 letter a day. Yesterday I saved all the blog posts of the blogs that start with letter F, for example. Today […]

Storytime: Why I don’t mention my son on the blog as much anymore
Hello and welcome to my blog. I wanted to say happy February but then I got busy and forgot, so happy February everyone!

The sunshine of my day
Get yourself a son like mine. I was lying in bed depressed, typing away at my phone, completely ignoring my 6-year-old, when he suggested we do a toilet paper roll craft. He is old enough to do most of the work on his own, but prefers I draw, even though he is good at drawing […]

What I’m working on
Hello and welcome to my blog! How are you doing today? It’s amazing how wordy I get once my creativity isn’t trapped in themes, but themes are important for the organization of my blog. Nobody wants to read incoherent thoughts and all over the place ideas. Today I thought I’d share what I’ve been working […]

Throwback Thursday: 5 free games to play with your kids from the couch
Hello and welcome to my blog! Welcome to Throwback Thursday, where I bring back a blog post I wrote exactly a year ago and reflect on it. I’m half-asleep in bed. Thursday is almost over, but I couldn’t sleep before bringing back this gem. I wish I read this in the morning. It would have […]

Parenting hacks: How to spend one on one time with your child at home
I downloaded an app called spin the wheel, and I use it every once in a while when my son and I get bored. You can put anything on it. We made different wheels. One for drawing (when he wants to draw but doesn’t know what), and for many other things, like funny truth or […]
