Appalling service from @vinted. My package was wrapped securely according to guidelines and clearly damaged as a result of mishandling. Yet Vinted are denying there is a problem and refusing to refund…

Never feel guilty for cuddling or picking up your baby. A baby cannot be spoiled by love.

6-year-old: I’m not cleaning my room.

Me: I don’t like your tone.

6: What does “tone” mean?

Me: I don’t like your voice.

6: *weird Kermit the Frog voice* I’m not cleaning my room.

Every child has a gift

It might be music,
math and reading,
art,
Or kindness.

Still a long way to go, but getting there. I count myself lucky to have an amazing child who teaches me something new every day.
