An expat mummy. Reading. Writing. Making memories. Enjoying the journey. Intriguing doorways and forgotten brick walls. What is it there for? Why would you make a door that at best is child-height, or chest-height for an adult? I have tried to find out a little bit more about the property and the interesting little door in the wall. I got a genuine thrill when I realised that an all-time favourite author of mine, Evelyn Waugh, may perhaps have passed through that very door. 8216;When Alastair and Evelyn ...

An expat mummy. Reading. Writing. Making memories. Enjoying the journey. No, No, NO! And getting into character. I’ve mentioned before that we’re a book loving family. Our little girl definitely already has her favourites. But when you are reading the same story for the third time in twenty minutes, knowing that the same request will probably happen the next bedtime, based on precedent over the past three nights, you come to think ‘enough is enough! Who doesn’t like a good read in the bath? By Beth Shosh...

An expat mummy. Reading. Writing. Making memories. Enjoying the journey. Doe a deer, a female deer…. There’s nothing quite like a Saturday morning post for the WordPress weekly photo challenge to get back into the swing of things after a couple of weeks holiday. This week’s theme – blur. This entry was posted in the miscellany of life. And tagged Charlecote Park. Blogger awards and sharing the love. Pregnancy and motivation – not the perfect match! 13 thoughts on “ Doe a deer, a female deer…. I really ap...

An expat mummy. Reading. Writing. Making memories. Enjoying the journey. The love of jaajuu (devotion in many stages). The thing about language is, it’s a great tool for getting what you want. And this is never more obvious than when you witness the transition from baby to child. Those early babbles and screeches turning into recognisable sounds and then eventually into the first precious words that as a mum or dad you just want to remember forever. When is an orange not an orange? This move from ‘...

Ten months old and our little man has a new skill…drinking with a straw out of a bottle!

An expat mummy. Reading. Writing. Making memories. Enjoying the journey. Merry go round moments – week 36. Family fun: top shot. With her bestie, in a real, working helicopter cockpit. As you do! What an incredible morning she had. Unlike a few of the children she was not in the least bit daunted by the experience – she was totally in her element! Memories are made of this. Not dark cheese. Good job, mummy! 8221; So sweet, so funny. Music makes me happy. Row row row your boat. The little man rows along w...

An expat mummy. Reading. Writing. Making memories. Enjoying the journey. Equality and inspiration: women of the world. Today is International Women’s Day; a day to celebrate the achievements of women and highlight the importance of gender equality. The event has been held annually for over 100 years. Any excuse for a floral shot! Purple is the official colour of International Women’s Day. So who inspires me? The list is long, but here are some of the great women that spring to mind:.

An expat mummy. Reading. Writing. Making memories. Enjoying the journey. Tip tap, tiny feet. During pregnancy there are a few truly magical moments, to counterbalance (hopefully! All the rest that goes with having your body and hormones totally taken over and out of control for those nine long months. This week saw one of them for me. Second time round you just seriously don’t have time for all of that! This time round we’ve read nothing whatsoever. This entry was posted in mummy and me. Liked by 1 person.

An expat mummy. Reading. Writing. Making memories. Enjoying the journey. They are by no means alone, but people with cameras are often the culprits of some particularly appalling under water behaviour. How can they ever think that it is acceptable to lie on coral or intentionally damage the marine environment for the sole purpose of getting a particular photograph? And stressing marine life by chasing it or frightening it out of hiding, purely to get their desired shot? It utterly infuriates me. They are...
