Mumma Bloom Words

15/11/2021

Last week I had to have a hard conversation with my 5 year old. We were going to great Nanny’s funeral (my Nan) and I have to explain that she had passed away. I wasn’t sure at all what to expect but he burst into tears. It broke my heart. I had to explain that her body had stopped working but now she was up in the stars looking down and always watching him as he grew. He was quiet for most of the day and drew a picture of a girls face then crossed it out. Whilst this shocked me at first I then realised that this was his way of understanding and processing what I had told him. It was amazing to see him finding his own way to understand. He asked a lot of questions and often repeated questions but I think he liked knowing that she will always watch him and when he can see the stars thinking she is looking right back at him 🥰

This is the poem I wrote and read at her funeral.

We have been super busy this week filling our days with activities. But honestly there is nothing more exhausting than keeping a 5 year old occupied and trying to avoid screen time as much as possible. Holiday for Mumma needed post half term! Anyone else?

It’s the first day of the summer break for us today… anyone else feeling a bit drained going into this holiday after the last year? I feel like I’ve exhausted a lot of ideas during the lockdowns.

How is it the summer holidays already? Laura and I will both have our children off over the summer and so we wanted to let you know that we will not be posting quite so regularly. We do still intend to post things for you to read however they may be a little more sporadic depending on time. But we will be back in full flow after the holidays. Wishing everyone a lovely summer holiday

Does anyone else make it to the weekend only to lose all motivation?

''Every little thing that hasn’t gone according to plan has felt so much bigger than it should. On days like this even the simplest of tasks feels unachievable and all I want to do is wallow. Cue a day of mindlessly scrolling on social media instead of doing anything productive.

I don’t know what it is about weekends but it seems that it is much harder to motivate myself...''
