“Reading gives us some place to go when we have to stay where we are.” This lockdown we’ve been on lots of armchair adventures as a family and the habit of reading to our kids daily has grown our connection whilst also sparking their creativity and imagination. Sure, it can be a bit crazy getting the kids to settle down at the end of the day but with a bit of luck, the pinching and poking between siblings soon subsides and the kids fall asleep with whimsical stories floating around in their dreams.
We got married back in 2010 in the midst of World Cup fever and the past ten years have flown by so fast. Sigh, such a cliche but so true. At the risk of adding another cliché to the mix, our marriage has been quite a journey. Our family grew from just the two of us to five in a flash and before we could blink we were parents to three kids all in nappies at the same time. I still can’t believe that this is my life.
