Years ago when Rebecca was about seven-years-old, she asked for a toy kitchen for her birthday. Normally more than happy to treat my children on their birthdays, I found myself utterly conflicted on this one. You see, her older brother, Christopher, had asked for a Barbie kitchen two years previously and against my better judgement I didn't end up getting it for him. Regretfully, I listened to...

My nine-year-old daughter Ella gets incredibly homesick meaning that she misses out on everything which makes childhood so much fun; slumber parties and camping trips to name but two. We have tried everything to make a night away from home without mum and dad easier on her, but she always returns home with a “sick tummy” or “headache” before too long. From filling in her friends'...

Every night my husband says without fail:"We are so lucky", referring to our two healthy, happy and half-the-time-crazy children. I mumble, "I know..." But sometimes, I really do need that gentle reminder. The life of an honest mum is not always fun. I feel like ometimes all I do is give out to my kids, give out about them and wish for bedtime to arrive willingly. I know I write a lot about the...

I was reading an article the other day where Adele, a singer and mum, took her little boy to Disneyland. Nothing wrong with that is there? Well, she was photographed with her son wearing Anna's dress from Frozen . Nothing wrong with that is there? Apparently so. In fact, in some recesses of the internet Adele had practically committed a massive crime and got away with it. "I will dress our son...

Sometime it feels like I could gently lower the needle on a broken record, raise the volume so that the sound pervades the entire house and slip furtively from my home without any of my family members even noticing. Until they need clean underwear, that is. Being a mum can be a repetitive process and you often find yourself repeating the same phrases, orders and rebukes until the words lose all...

When I was growing up, I remember constantly being sent to the neighbours to borrow a jug of milk or return a cup of sugar – errands I would never even consider asking my children to do these days. Things were different back then; neighbourhoods were more close-knit and residents were much more involved in each other's lives. It was nothing to spend half the day in a neighbour's house...

Following a planned Caesarean and two nights in the hospital. we were all very happy to finally be at home with our brand new baby. I was super excited to start our lives as a family of four and Little Man was super excited to have a new baby brother. So far all was going really well. When Bubs was five-days-old, we took him for his heel prick test and, in all honesty, I had no idea what they...

I write this as someone who lost their mother nearly three years ago, so granted, Mother's Day, is quite a bittersweet day. As hard as it is not being able to pop along to my mam’s house with a box of chocolates and flowers, we get the amazing job of spoiling Emma, my wife and Florence’s mammy. This post is just a quick tribute to Emma and every mother that has been and ever will be. You...

Between Mother's Day and International Women's Day, it's been a massive week for us and the fellow ladies in our lives. Unsurprisingly, like many others I'm sure, those two particular days got me thinking about the women who have helped me navigate the highs and lows of my story thus far. And while there are dozens who have helped to shape me into the woman and mother I am today...

As a teen and young woman, my relationship with my mother was incredibly complex. We were unbelievably close which, while reassuring in many ways, also meant we often rubbed each other up the wrong way. I marvelled at the fact some of my friends never argued with their mothers – something they put down to the fact they simply weren't close enough to have blazing rows. For a long time, I...
