A half term edition of #projecthappy! It’s gone so quickly, and suddenly we’re in June and halfway through 2017 already. I’m so glad I have this project to help me slow down and actually notice and capture the joyful moments every day – without it I’m sure it would feel like time was going even faster.
We’ve had a busy couple of weeks of birthday celebrations and fun in the sunshine and I really don’t want the girls to go back to school tomorrow – I like the slow mornings, the conversations we have together at the kitchen table and the moments of connection that seem to happen so much more when they have time to just be themselves. Seven weeks (yes, I’m counting) until the summer holidays and then we get six whole weeks of time together and I honestly can’t wait. Yes, there will be the inevitable meltdown and strops and arguments, just like there always are, and yes they’ll be difficult to manage in the moment. But overall I know we’re going to have so much fun and make so many memories that it will vastly outweigh any less good moments.
