Emma was back to her classes this week and the kids were all hyped up there too, I thunk it’s just the excitement of normality, if this makes any sense, I wouldn’t worry too much about it! #WotW

A good reminder and I like how you acknowledge you don’t always do things perfectly but you are trying which makes you a good parent

Yes, it can be tough to remember with little ones to keep talking as its us they learn from

We do take talking for granted, occasionally we need to stop and think what we are actually saying and sounding like

Exactly, we need to think about what we say sometimes x

That’s lovely! My little one has just started talking more and more- I needed a reminder to keep chatting to him as after a day of non-stop talking at work sometimes we just sit and play in silence! Thank you

Great post, I need to think about how I talk to my three too. Something we take for granted.

Wise words, we really do need to talk, and listen – but as you say, that can, at times, be really hard x

Lol! Yeah, I’m dreading that time!

Great word! Iv’e also been talking with my older children this week and trying to listen to them more. I think it’s the only way I’m going to get through the teenage years :)x #WotW

Very true, what you said is so important, but probably one of the most difficult things to do. x

Talking is what we do all the time, yet we frequently forget what impact it’s having on our children

It is tough when they are not listening, but I really need to make the effort to pay attention to how and what I am saying x

So true!
