Quote from my 3-year-old this morning... "I don't want you! I want Mummy! I want you to go back on a plane and go away!"

I've brought my son's Dolphin to India to send him updates. He didn't know I was taking him. But fuck, Dolphin is having the adventure of a lifetime. 😂 Dolphin has ridden a Tuktuk and already caught a glimpse of the Taj Mahal on Day 1. Tomorrow he's visiting the Taj properly.🐬

Patiently waiting for Primark to release their family Christmas pyjama sets for this year...

FYI Cineworld, a Beetlejuice trailer is not acceptable for a bunch of young children watching Despicable Me 4.

Teachers taking a day or two of unpaid leave for their own wedding? I don't want to ruffle any feathers by asking but I cannot justify the extra couple of thousand for it to be a weekend or half-term.

My fiancé won't let me buy two business class A340 seats for our head table for the wedding. And honestly, I feel that's very unreasonable 🥲🥲

Not allowed an inflatable Santa and Christmas T-rex for the front garden. How unfair. "We're saving for a wedding" 🥲🥲

Kid's currently crying in his room because I ate Colin the caterpillar's head. Apparently, Colin had feelings and his body will be 'sad' without his head. Loving the empathy but also... it's a cake. 🤣🤣

On today's episode of 'Why is my 4-year-old crying?' Because his number line stops at 0 and doesn't go into negative numbers. 🙃🙃

Quick 6-hour day trip to Rome to eat an obscene amount of food and take in some local sights! 🇮🇹✈️🤌

Just out of curiosity... Primary school teacher curious about a jump to secondary school as a food tech teacher. What sort of conversions or extra qualifications would I have to source? Any job spec I've looked at just states 'relevant degree'.

"Can I go on the iPad?" "No son, you're base 10 and multilink have arrived."

3 years ago!?! Dusting off the cobwebs from this iconic crossover I recorded for World Book Day 2023.

Spoke to a teacher the other day who shared with me that Newsround is 'banned' in their school and is labelled as a 'waste of learning time'. In a world where willful ignorance is on the rise in adults, I thought this was shocking. It's so important children know what's going on.

Watching Nadiya Jamir Hussain... Why on earth is she putting cheese puffs in a Mac 'n' Cheese?!? Also, why does it look banging and why am I going to make it next week?!? 👀👀

The only logical way to track our pregnancy... Cook/bake with the size-corresponding food each week! 🤰👨‍🍼

Wanted to wait until the children found out before I put it out in the ether... From September, I'm hanging up my Primary boots and picking up an apron, heading into Secondary education as a Teacher of Food and Nutrition. A huge pivot but am excited to see what it brings! 👨‍🍳

Future Lioness pending... 🩷🎀♀️⚽️
