Ooooh. I just read this great article on BBC News online. Admire and ooh and aah at the original use of healthy food, and then visit Smita Srivastava’s blog, called Little Food Junction. Moms with fussy little eaters will find true inspiration!
And here’s a site I found just by chance: Mila’s Daydreams. Mila’s Mom, Adele [...]
I know that as they get older, the 29 month gap between Max and Alex’s ages will become less and less evident – but right now, it’s pretty keenly felt. Mostly by Alex, who seems hell-bent on doing every single thing his big brother does, thus constantly putting his life in some form of peril [...]
I LOVE Max’s play school, even though it is a bit pricey. Here is why:
They have special week-long ‘units’, where they learn about other countries… so far, they’ve done Japan, Holland, Egypt and (as evidenced above) England.
Riding on the cutest damn mini-horses that I have ever seen. And I don’t even LIKE horses (sorry, Mary!).
They [...]
Hi Jowita!
Here’s a little shout-out to a friend of mine back in Toronto: a writer, a photographer, a Mom and a stunning brunette. Oh. And Polish!
The scene: Max and I are watching ‘Casper The Friendly Ghost’ on TV (with a monotonous Polish voice-over guy to boot). Some huge green ghost with red eyes and a James Earl Jones-esque kind of voice shows up and starts terrorising all the uber-nice ghosties.
Me: Wow! That green ghost is scary!
Max: Do you think so?
Me: [...]
You’d think that someone who has moved countries and continents as often as I have would just have some kind of in-built ‘editing my stuff’ system, wouldn’t you? I know I keep meaning to install such a system, because every time I have to pack up my whole damn life (again) and stack the boxes [...]
So, everyone? Please admire the bunny ears. This is Max and I walking home from the end-of-the-school-year show; he was delighted with the ears and wore them the whole way home.
And! Max loved the things so much that he wore them back to school the morning after the performance. Here he is, at 8:00 on [...]
I must admit that being an English-speaking Mommy blogger out here in Poland is a bit of an isolated experience. Even if I belonged to BlogHer, I couldn’t get to any of the conferences, and I read with envy about y’all meeting online through various sites and groups, and then driving across the city, or [...]
So, you guys remember how Max went to get a haircut a few weeks ago? Well, it is already stiflingy, suffocatingly, stickingly (oh, shut up! I get to make up words on my blog if I feel like it!) hot in Warsaw, so Piotr campaigned heavily for him to take our sweet baby Alex to [...]
Alex is a sweet boy – and thank GOD he is, or else I would have been so scarred by Max at the same age that I would not believe that kids could be so easy and think that all those parents who said they had easy kids were just big fat lying liars who [...]
