I was just walking down the stairs and she was at the bottom with her little lip quavering. I scooped her up and just cuddled her here like this whilst she sobbed at the injustice of her two-year-old world. I’m so thankful for Tom picking up the camera and taking this shot. Even though she was upset, I’m so glad this moment was captured; it sums up what a lot of parenting a toddler feels like sometimes.
We’ve been thinking a lot lately about sensible adult things like getting our wills sorted and getting life insurance. It’s something that’s been on our mind for a while but just one of those things we’ve not got round to.
Life insurance is essential for parents because it provides financial security for your children if something happens to you. It ensures they have the resources to cover daily expenses, education, and future needs. A good policy can help your family maintain their quality of life, pay off debts, and handle unexpected costs. By choosing the right coverage,I feel like you give your kids a safety net, offering peace of mind that they’ll be financially protected no matter what.
I hate thinking about the worst happening, but it’s something we just have to do, especially now that we are parents. Writing a will is crucial once you have kids because it ensures they are cared for according to your wishes if something happens to you. Having a will gives you control, protects your family’s best interests, and provides peace of mind that your children will be taken care of no matter what.
And one of just me, my dress in case you are wondering, is from here 🙂
Just a few ‘bits and bobs’ of our life lately. I don’t know if its the weather but I’ve been fully embracing staying at home and just chilling out with this little gang. Every day with small children is different no matter what you are doing so it never really gets dull ha!
Oh and my lovely friend Lauren took this one of Mabli and me and I LOVE it so much (did I say I love it enough in this post?)
I swear I must say a million times on this blog that my favourite age is now but…it’s really is 😉 I remember Wilf turning two, and it just being so wonderful, being able to chat with him and see his personality take form. Now that Mabli is doing the same and being her own crazy little person, it feels a little bittersweet. First time around it made me think ‘I can’t wait to have another child and experience another beautiful soul. This time it made me think, ‘This is the last time I will experience two years old’. It makes me feel sad at times but at the same time, it spurs me on to soak it all up now, to really appreciate these days when they are small enough to need me so much. When they eagerly clamber for hugs and kisses and want to spend all their time with us. At times it can be overwhelming for sure, but I’m just as aware that there will be a time soon when they wont need us so much.
Ah motherhood!!
