ANY NEWS FROM LIFE WITH TWO CHILDREN?
“Children are like ice cream. They’re messy, melty, brain-freezing, but you can’t get enough of them.” DINNER Dinners are still not good. Throughout the year, I once heard from the children that I had finally managed to make a good dish, it was pasta in mushroom sauce. This year I didn’t make this dish for the first time, but I think my son was in a good mood and that’s why I accepted the praise. Generally speaking, for my children, the best dish is the pasta itself – without the sauce, which they usually call “awful slime”. The tomato soup they ate at grandma’s on the weekend was ok. I…

THE SPECIALIST IN CHILDREN’S MORNING DRAMAS – WANTED IMMEDIATELY
“Being a mother is tough mornings with kids you’ve never heard of before.” I was inspired by stories from morning dramas related to motherhood for this post. Of course, funny dramas that probably every parent has experienced.My daughter’s drama today was about the color of the plate I served the toast on.Dora is a Paw Patrol fan, and due to my lack of sleep, I put a toast on Spider-Man’s plate. And the scene began with crying, screaming, and a general loss of interest in breakfast because she no longer liked toast from any plate other than Paw Patrol. And it may seem absurd to you, but for us parents,…

I AM HAPPY WITH WHO I AM NOW
“In the morning I look at my two children and tell myself what else in my life could be so perfect, successful, and emanating pure love.” MY CHILDREN’S ORDINARY MORNING Wake up Every morning from 6:30 am we are getting ready with my children for Nursery. It’s 7:30 am and Dorothy keeps swapping one pair of leggings for another. The “Paw Patrol” tops don’t match her mood today, and she wants the “Pepa Pig” outfit. Patrick is dressed and ready but watches Lego Friends on Netflix while his mother and sister argue. I admire my patience again, sipping my coffee and waiting for Dora to finish her fashion runway. Nursery time…

I MANAGED TO MAKE POTTY TRAINING SATISFYING FOR MY CHILD
“LESS STRUGGLING PARENTS, MORE SATISFIED CHILDREN” Potty training – I’ll show you two examples of how this process went for my son. But first, in your mind, answer the following questions. That’s where I started. Do you remember the feeling that someone told you to do something, rushed you, or, worst of all, gave you orders? And how did you feel then? I felt a need to rebel, I gave up, I felt dissatisfied. Now consider that this is how your child feels when he starts potty training through commands, compulsory education, and unsatisfied training. I am writing this only because I know this way from my own experience. FIRST EXAMPLE…

THE TOOTH BRUSHING METHOD AS SEEN BY YOUR CHILDREN
“BLOOD, SWEAT, TOOTHPASTE AROUND – this is what usually morning looks like” Sometimes it seems to me that the later period of teething is easier to care for the baby’s teeth. I think about it this way because Patrick started teething very late when he was already 10 months old. Right after buying him a toothbrush, he started copying us. For my son was no problem with brushing his teeth, applying toothpaste, or rinsing his mouth. Of course, there were times when he was in a bad mood, and then the toothpaste didn’t suit him, and the colour of the toothbrush was no longer his favourite. Fortunately, after jointly purchasing toothpaste and a toothbrush…
