Well getting back into a routine after Christmas has been far more difficult that I imagined. In fairness James napped when he felt like it and stayed up late as I was staying in Mums and he quickly learnt that if I said no, there was always a willing aunty or nana to say yes.… Continue reading VIP MAGAZINE PARENTING COLUMN 1
“I” love Christmas. I love the magic and bribery Santa brings.
