📆 Hello August!
The month of school holidays, endless snack requests, and trying to work while Peppa Pig is playing in the background 🐷📺
As a busy working mum myself, I totally get how hard this juggle can be – especially when you’re working from home with zero childcare and trying to keep all the plates spinning.
Don’t get me wrong – my girls are a lot older now and it’s definitely easier these days, but I still get that mum guilt creeping in when I’m in my office and it’s a lovely sunny day out.
That feeling never really goes away, does it?
I work extra hard before the holidays so I can take a bit more time off with them now.
But I remember the days when they were smaller…
We made it work, we had fun, and honestly? Those chaotic little moments were the most special.
So here’s your gentle reminder for August:
✨ Do what you can
✨ Be present when you can
✨ And please don’t compare yourself to the ‘perfect’ scenes on social media – most of us are running kitchens that feel more like a drive-thru Starbucks right now 🤣
Be kind to yourself – you’re doing a great job 💛
