Pretty exhausted this week, but the children have been full of beans after school. I'm relieved they're having a bit of downtime with their Kindles. One on my lap and one right next to me.

Kept these two off school today as they have been really unwell with colds. Naturally they made a dramatic recovery around 9am! 😂 They've had a few relapses and felt crummy for a bit though, so I'm glad they're at home with me. Feels like we're back in lockdown, doing random crafts with cardboard boxes to keep them busy! . #craft #crafting #crafts #kidsactivities #activitiesforkids #parenting #parentingmoments #family #famille #familledacceuil #familleadoptive #familie #familieleben #familienleben #wirsindfamilie #familytime #familia #familiacogida #parenthood https://www.instagram.com/p/ClyjEmEsTKh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Managed to persuade this one to go for a "walk with feet" as opposed to him bringing his bike, which I've ended up carrying home the last 2 times. Much more enjoyable experience than yesterday's disastrous outing! 😂 . #gooutside #gooutdoors #playoutdoors #playoutside #weekendwalks #walking #walks #attachment #attachement #attachmentbuilding #attachmentdisorder #buildingattachments #bonding #wecouldhavemissedthis #livingourbestlives #parenting #parentingmoments #family #famille #familledacceuil #familleadoptive #familie #familieleben #familienleben #wirsindfamilie #familytime #familia #familiacogida #parenthood https://www.instagram.com/p/ClwN2TBMF1Y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We're all tired after a busy night with little J waking up a lot. Took J upstairs for 10 mins just now, because he wanted to try to have a nap. He didn't manage, but we came back downstairs to a sleeping Zoe! 😂❤️ #sleepdeprived #sleep #sleepy #tired #parenting #parentingmoments #family #famille #familledacceuil #familleadoptive #familie #familieleben #familienleben #wirsindfamilie #familytime #familia #familiacogida #parenthood https://www.instagram.com/p/ClvkBTPsGU7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Big fan of Zoe's "To Do" list for the day! #4 is "snooze," but she's decided not to do that after all 😂🌈 Adorable stationery from @shrimpanddoodle . #rainbow #wholesome #wearefamily #family #famille #familledacceuil #familleadoptive #familie #familieleben #familienleben #wirsindfamilie #familytime #familia #familiacogida #stationery #postit https://www.instagram.com/p/Cls0EUPsRc2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The children drew these pictures while I was making dinner, and stuck them up in the hallway. I didn't plan to have pictures on those walls, but I suppose it's not just MY house, so I'll go with it! Love that they were so pleased with their drawings that they wanted to display them 😍 . #gentleparenting #therapeuticparenting #connectedparenting #parenting #honestmotherhood #honestparenthood #parenthood #family #familie #familleadoptive #familledacceuil #famille #familieleben #wirsindfamilie #wearefamily #familia https://www.instagram.com/p/ClmRqE5rz3S/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Appreciation post! This phenomenal woman is a terrific auntie and the kids are always so excited to see their Auntie Lucy. She's so much fun! She came to visit recently and entertained the children for hours while I got to sit down, with nobody touching me or asking for snacks. Don't get me wrong, I love Mum life and I've changed my life drastically so that I can have more time with my kids, but sometimes I get serious sensory overload and just need a bit of space to feel human again. I had a fab afternoon unwinding and chatting with my brother-in-law about his awesome occult art and clothing business, @lamortclothing . #appreciation #grateful #auntie #aunt #uncle #niece #nieces #nephew #ittakesavillage #wearefamily #lovemyfamily #familytime #familyfun #family #famille #familledacceuil #familleadoptive #familie #familienleben #familia #wirsindfamilie #noussommesfamille @lucindrical https://www.instagram.com/p/CjkBnqUsOth/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Little one hollered for me, then decided he's not quite ready for nap time to end after all. 🤣❤️ . #sleepy #naptime #parentingmoments #adoption #adoptionbuiltus #adoptiveparents #adoptivefamily #wecouldhavemissedthis #wearefamily #thisisus #famille #familledacceuil #fostermama #pflegefamilie #pflegemama #cuidadodeniños #adopcion #adoptionsupport #adoptionstory #adoptionjourney #adoptioncommunity #adoptionmonth #adoptionmatters #adoptionsupportuk #adoptionawareness #adoptionawarenessmonth #snuggly #adorable #wholesome #thingswelove https://www.instagram.com/p/CjiVPhcIGV7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My children really struggled with the heat today. This is not a picture of a child falling down the stairs. This is a child getting themselves intentionally into a strange position, because they can't find a way to function in this RELENTLESS heat and do not know what to do with themselves! If I had £1 for every time he's said to me today "I don't know what to dooooooo," I could probably pay his university fees for his first year! 😂🙈🙈🙈 #kidsdoingthings #cantfunction #canthumantoday #toohottofunction #feelinghothothot #parentingstruggles #thestruggleisreal #relentless #heatwave #coping #notcoping #momlife #mumlife #mamaleben #viedemaman #mamanadoptive #familleenfrance #familie #familiadeacogida #familledacceuil #pflegemami #pflegemama #stairs https://www.instagram.com/p/ChLOIPwsYfq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"We don't ride pandas on the stairs!" - things I never expected to hear myself say... 🙈 Pic of my son huffing and hmphing his way downstairs, because holding his panda is "boring." 😂 #toddlerantics #panda #pandas #stairs #teddy #spiritedchild #spirited #raisingaspiritedchild #gentleparenting #thingsmomssay #thingsparentssay #parenting #adoption #adoptiveparent #adoptivemum #adoptivemom #adoptivefamily #famille #familledacceuil #pflegefamilie #pflegemama #pflegemami #adopcion #adoptionstory #familiadeacogida #mamaleben #viedemaman #parentlife #wearefamily https://www.instagram.com/p/Cgo4Z6gsMqB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finally someone has written a review of my book on Amazon.ca! ❤️ Sales have shot up in #Canada lately, so I assume someone is talking about Delly Duck on social media! Isn't it weird that I have sold books in countries I've never even been to?! This modern world is amazing. I do hope to go to Canada one day. #canadian #fostercareincanada #adoptionincanada #canadianadoption #canadianfosterparents #ohcanada #adoptiveparent #adopting #adoptivemom #adoptivefamily #fostering #fosterfamily #socialwork #socialworkmatters #kinshipcare #specialguardianship #grandparentcaregivers #famille #familledacceuil #fostermama #pflegefamilie #pflegemama #pflegemami #adopcion #adoptionstory #storiesthatmatter #canadianparents #canadianmom #canadianfamily https://www.instagram.com/p/CghRx1bsYhc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

One of my son's foster brothers has a YouTube channel doing lots of marble runs, which I showed the children yesterday morning. They both absolutely adore him, and they were inspired to create their own. #imagination #marbles #marblerun #hotwheels #fostersiblings #fosterbrother #fosterfamily #familledacceuil #pflegefamilie #cuidadodeniños #fostercarematters #foreverfamily #inspired #imaginativeplay #summeractivitiesforkids #activitiesforkids https://www.instagram.com/p/CggTo3msj3f/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Is there any better way to watch TV, than in a box next to your sibling? 😂🤷♀️ Been watching "Chip and Potato" this morning. Big cheers when the Razzles (gay zebra Dads with 2 children) came on, because we've talked before about how they may have adopted their children. Representation is fab. Really appreciate that TV is finally getting more diverse, and we can normalise talk about adoption ❤️ #adoption #adoptionbuiltus #adoptiveparent #adoptivefamily #adoptionuk #adoptionukcommunity #wearefamily #thisisus #famille #familledacceuil #fostermama #pflegefamilie #pflegemama #cuidadodeniños #adopcion #adoptionsupport #adoptionstory #mumlife #momlife #mamaleben #viedemaman #parentlife #parentsenfrance #parentsenfants #gaydads #gaypride #lgbt #lgbttvshow @chipandpotatohq @netflixuk @netflix https://www.instagram.com/p/CgWOnlMMXVY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Thrilled with this article about my #fostercare and #adoption books in the MK Citizen newspaper! Love this photo of me with my sister, Suzy and my daughter, Zoe, who have illustrated the books I've published so far.
