Go With The Flow

Wow, what a great day we had yesterday for JM's birthday.  It was a day of allowing for me.  I have to admit I normally want everything planned but this year I decided to go with the flow.  Nothing happened the way I thought it would but that was okay.  The party started at 1pm not 1.30 as I had planned and that was okay.  Some people arrived very late and that was okay.  Some people didn't stay as long as we expected and that was okay too.  The party went on until 6pm and JM told me it was the best birthday ever. 
When we allow the Universe to deliver what it knows to be the best for us instead of having to do what we think is best for us we have an AWESOME TIME.

Thank you Universe.

BIRTHDAY WEEK

It's birthday week.  JM will be 9 years old on Thursday.  He's growing up so fast.  Today we've been party shopping.  We're having his party at home (his choice) and he's invited a fantastic mix of friends.  I am happy to say that my son has friends ranging from little tots to people in their late 70's and loves spending time with them all.  We have around 15 children coming and 15-20 adults. 

So today we've bought a piñata and loads of toys and sweets to go inside.  We bought ballons, and shiny flag banners to decorate the garden, Wall.E plates and cups.  I managed to talk him out of the loud noisey hooter things as I thought the neighbours wouldn't appreciate the noise.

I managed to get some of the party food today but the rest will have to wait until Wednesday.  Thank goodness Granny is flying in Wednesday morning to help. 

Well I'd better get off.  Lots to do this week

Have a fabulous week and have FUN!

Happy Kids EXPO

Every now and again I receive information that stops me in my tracks. This morning I received an an email telling me about the Happier Kids Now Online EXPO.  It looks great.  I've already watched a fabulous interveiw with BOB DOYLE (from the secret)  and I have more to watch later.  Anyway I really wanted to share this with you all.  Just click on the link below to find out why I'm making a fuss about this. 

I'm Declaring Today a HUG A LOT DAY

It's official. Well sort of. We've had a hectic few weeks, lots of family visiting, fiestas (village party, late nights, rubbish food and fizzy drinks. What a combination. A time bomb in the making.

I have to admit I was getting a little stressed and a few raised voices were to be heard in our home.

However we reached breaking point the other day and I could see I was letting my son down big style. He was being told off constantly yet my husband and I were not providing what he needs to be at his best.

After a long chat with my husband and a diet, sleep rethink we are back on track.

He's almost back to his normal self. Except for still being tired. So that's why I'm declaring today a HUG A LOT DAY.

Happy Parenting (sometimes takes a major rethink)

Happy Summer Holidays

Jack has started his summer holidays now and we're all so excited.  I know many of my readers homeschool and don't follow a strict school year but I want to wish each and every one of you a wonderful, fun filled, love filled summer. 
It's really common where I live to send children to summer school but whilst I think the organizers of many of the summer schools on offer put in a great deal of work it's not for us.  I asked Jack if he wanted to go and he said "NO!".  Thant's enough for me. 
I did send him a few years for part of the summer when we first lived here so that he would keep up with the language but now he's fluent and mixes well out of school.  The first year I kept him off for the whole of the summer (almost 3 months) people were full of comments like "You'll regret it," "He'll be bored in a couple of weeks".  Well we loved it and we are all looking forward to having an amazing summer. 
We have a small speadboat which is kept a few minutes walk from our home.  Yesterday my husband finished work early and off we went for the day.  It was completely spur of the moment and the freedom of having no time restraints was fantastic.
We're making a family summer 2010 book as we go along.  Lots of photo's and messages.  Then at the end of the summer we are going to have it made into a real book.  Jack is in charge of putting it all together and writing most of the messages.  We made one last year on in a notebook.  We wanted it to be a bit more grown up for Jack to do this year.  We haven't told him we're going to have it made into a real book yet.  It can be his end of summer suprise.
Whatever your summer plans are I hope you have lots of fun and thoroughly enjoy your family time together.

Ask For What You Want

In law of attraction terms it is essential to ask for what you want and focus your attention on that.
When dealing with children this is especially important.  Today I have added a new article on my Videojug Pages site - Law of Attraction parenting.  I am so excited about being a founder member and I think this is a great sharing idea.  You can read my latest article (page) at http://pages.videojug.com/sites/90-Law-of-Attraction-Parenting
