Just thought I’d better let you know…for those of you who read my ‘dear neighbour’ post, that I actually have some wonderful neighbours and that the only person who is actually concerned with all the screaming coming out of my house – is me.
It is one of the wonders of the internet that, even though I deleted this post, the morning after I’d written it, that for those of you who are subscribed, you are still able to access it – even though I can’t. Mysterious.
Anyway, we are all fine and in fact had a fabulous weekend which was made even more wonderful by L who is wee’ing in the toilet like a professional, having virtually no accidents and only using a nappy at night. Words can’t describe how happy that makes me. I could just scream!
I loved your Dear Neighbour post. I remembered back to closing windows in the house due to loud meltdowns. So great you live in a supportive community. I guess the Neighbours may be those people we stumble across in life who don’t know our story and make assumptions. I love how you stay regulated through it all, your calm, present nature provides such a safe container for your little ones to express themselves. May you get more Mummy nights out, and time out to recharge and fill up your tank.
Thank you! Yes, well, none of the kids have any problem expressing themselves. I’ve spent years helping L to speak and now…a bit of shoosh every now and then wouldn’t go astray. Why is life like that?
