Howdy #coolmumclub how the devil are you? Good week? Hope you are all raring to go for a hardcore Thursday link up with the gang. Looking forward to seeing what you’ve all been up to!
This week our ‘lil instagram community hit a pretty epic 10K milestone, so thanks to all of you for tagging, sharing and spreading the #coolmumclub spirit over there. Feeling a bit proud of our little patch of the internet – it’s amazing where you can find a sense of community if you want to find it. xxx
This week I’m linking Mum feeling ‘meh‘ a post I wrote last month reflecting on the days you don’t feel as happy go lucky as you’d like to – we all have those days right? This post was originally featured on www.meetothermums.com during Mental health awareness week but I think it’s as relevant this week, or any week for that matter so hoping some of you might enjoy it.
My second linked post is ‘Creating our perfect family garden’ a long overdue post about the way we have turned our small spot of suburbia into our family nature haven over the last few years. A balancing act between making it work for us and the kids; it’s one for those of you creeping with caution and disbelief into the middle aged zone of hanging out in garden centres and actually being excited about a bloom on your prize dahlias.
Picking a favourite post was as hard as ever, but I’m going with Helen Just Saying Mum and her must read posts about our children and social media.
My gorge co-host Talya, aka Motherhood: The real deal picked out another teen Mum blogger, Mother of Teenagers with a very topical post right now amidst exam season: How do we prepare our kids for failure?
As always both of the favourite posts are pinned over on the pinterest boards for #coolmumclub fave reads of 2017. I’ve also been busy pinning away as much of your content as I can over into the #coolmumclub category boards by subject so make sure you check out what’s over there…
Talya’s linked posts this week are The reality of mum me time & 15 foods you can sneak vegetables into. Can’t wait to get stuck into a read of both of these myself!
Right guys, time to link while you drink… enjoy x
