Who you are behind closed doors matters more mama
This other day the kids and I went to the library, got some books and later on we went to the library park to play, I thought to steal a moment to myself while occasionally glancing at them. I received a call from my sister, while chatting to her I noticed glances from pass by and I translated that as “they probably think I’m a bad mom…
Unpopular opinion; Start when you and your child are ready.

Luluspov – Parenting with grace
Parenting with Grace is challenging me daily to be more conscious of what I say to my children to make sure that what I say does not wound or influence the way they view themselves and the world.

A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies . . . The man who never reads lives only one.” George R.R. Martin
Today I came across a statement that was not so pleasing to read:
‘SOUTH AFRICA IS NOT A READING NATION’
According to a study by PIRLS (Progress in International Reading Literacy)
78% of South African Grade 4 children cannot read for meaning in any…
Few months after my husband and I got married, some people started asking us when we having a baby. *rolls her eyes* we just smiled and continued with our lives.
I remember a older woman I barely had conversations with, called me up during lunch at church. She said I should turn around, and I did without putting much thought into her order. Then she hugged me from behind, pressed my tummy so…
