I’m a new mom to my baby Kyra, writing here to record these early days for my own sake, and for hers. So okay, yes, this is a ‘ mommy blog’ by virtue of me being a mommy and this being a blog. But it turns out I’m a lot more than ‘just a mommy’!
I started writing to chronicle my daughter’s life, but I have come to realise that with the birth of a child, comes the birth of a mother and a father, and I am growing and developing too. I guess this blog also chronicles my move from full time career, with little other focus, to being more of the person I want to be. I am on a journey of discovery, changing step by step, and my blog has quickly become the chronicle of that journey too.
If you’re interested in cooking, childbirth, crafts, photography, poetry, ‘alternative’ healing or travel, in no particular order, you’ll find things in my pages that will hopefully interest you. Feel free to drop by from time to time, sign up for RSS and leave me a message so I can check in on you too.
I have been writing since before I started school and find it cathartic, it’s been a great release to me in my life. I’m documenting these early days for myself and for my daughter that when times get tough she will know how much she is wanted, loved and enjoyed. Even on the hard days, or the tired days, she is always adored.
For our friends and family who live far away, this blog is a way of keeping you in touch with it all.
For those who don’t know us at all, this is so you know you’re not the only one going through it.
