April is a coming

March has been a busy month; both girls have had chicken pox, the older one wasn't too bad but baby was miserable the poor wee pet and was only happy in my arms hence nothing much could be done. She's much better now and has just started doing the sign for 'milk' which is fabulous, such a woohoo moment. Will start working on 'eat' next and 'light' which was her sister's favourite when she was a baby.

Things are coming on well for the impending classes, Alpha Kids full and only one place left for Baby Sign so really happy about that. Just need to finalise lesson plans and I'm ready to rock and nursery rhyme!

Things have been going slowly this week as both my girls are poorly- one with chicken pox and the wee one with a cold; she is bound to get the dreaded pox as well! Ice lollies are the answer to cheer up any spot covered toddler, particularly red ones then yellow and finally orange.

Have so much to do business wise but no time to do it....Have very helpful friends who are handing out leaflets and putting up posters to advertise the upcoming classes...less than a month to go now and spaces are starting to fill up.

My new mats arrived during the week- alphabet ones- was so excited I did a mat dance and had very strange looks from my nearly three year old and a lovely chuckle from the 5 month old- yes they are learning young that mummy is an eejit. They also came in their own carry case which is just so handy but knowing me once i take them out they'll never fit in so nicely again and i'll end up carrying them around in a black bag.

Oops nap time over it starts again...

Wee Wonders is born

Well after a few mad months of birthing second child, breastfeeding on demand, cleaning up various shades of spew, poo and snot it has become inherently clear that the time has come to start a fabulous business that will not only provide a great work/life balance but also make tons of money in the process.

In reality though as much as I love being at home with my daughters I do miss the cut and thrust of working life and hope this venture will offer a pleasant compromise- all the joys of snot, vomit and cuddles on demand alongside monetary contribution to the household income and job satisfaction.
