Personal post.. being present

Life is hectic and there is so much needing to be done daily but the most important thing a parent can do is BE PRESENT in your child's life! Listen to their stories about nothing... Go exploring in the backyard, pretending to be Dora... Dance together in the kitchen to their made up songs.. Look at them when they speak to you.. Cuddle them for no reason.. and laugh about nothing..
Being present to them isn't about what you buy them or where you take them.. its about the quality time you spend with them!

Today I took the dog for a run, posted some customer orders, replied to some emails then began to clean my house when my very own little monkey came out and said "mummy can you photo me" So I dug out the camera and this is what we came up with.. I said Bella what should mummy title your images and she said 'Silly Bella' so here is some of our quality time captured.
