Thinking out Loud

Filed under: Chatterbox — momthepoet @ 6:43 pm

It’s late here and everyone’s asleep. The planes are loud outside.

I had a bad day. Allergy.

Sometimes being a mom can be almost like being in prison if you want to look at the dark side. I chose to stay at home and look after the kids. I hardly ever go out and am so dependent on my car and driver.

So the kids and I play ‘imagine’ games. That’s when the bright side comes out. Children can’t be trapped by anything that bores us. My teacher is right. I’m learning from my babies everyday…children can be your biggest teachers.

Watched a fantastic musical talent show today and can’t sleep thinking of the kind of talent young people have these days. Will my children have this kind of talent, will they be go-getters or the reserved struggling sorts?

I keep thinking of what they will end up like.

Me

I’m turning into a blogging maniac. Well I already write a health blog and have started out on a poetry blog. I’m Mom the Poet and I have twin boys called Abi and Ani. It’s one o’clock in the morning here and I was feeling tired all day. I run after the kids…they climb sofas and chairs…and now when they are sleeping I’m all charged up to write a new blog.

Self-publishing is addictive.

In this blog, I’m telling you about my kids and about parenting and about how to be a mom who is not guilty all the time.

I have a good feeling about this blog….
