What does your self-care look like? – Hannah Meadows
https://hannahmeadows.com/2015/04/19/what-does-your-self-care-look-like
Resources and self-care for adoptive parents. What does your self-care look like? I’ve talked before. About how my own self-care is a bit less about posh shower gel and a bit more about trying not to eat an entire jar of Nutella at a single sitting. What is it that you want from your self-care? I’d really like to have some more conversations about what it looks like for. Let’s start with a quick poll. (You can choose as many answers as you like, and feel free to add comments.). And then email it to me.

Happy Easter! – Hannah Meadows
https://hannahmeadows.com/2015/04/05/happy-easter
Resources and self-care for adoptive parents. Happy Easter, everyone! I hope you’re able to find some time today for self-care, even if that means locking yourself in the bathroom with a handful of mini eggs and singing ‘Thine Be The Glory’ at full volume to drown out the sound of squabbling siblings. (Don’t say you’ve never been there.). Here is Joanna’s Lego Easter. It was inspired by this video, currently doing the rounds on Facebook. I’ll be sharing the results soon. My Post Adoption Life.

8220;In school we can only work with what is presented in school”. I’m sorry that you can only deal with the behavior you see in school and that you struggle, or are unwilling, to understand why we see the behavior we do at home following what you may feel are little inconsequential incidents. Let me tell you about the behavior that was ‘presented’ at home following one of those little things in school. Who can I trust? Why have I been punished for an accident? What’s going to happen tomorrow? Finally He...

There are twenty school days left until the half term holidays and then J never has to wear school uniform again. And I can’t be bothered with all this. I’m going to let him go to school in his jeans so that we can have a quiet life. With twenty days to go, and GCSEs looming, I don’...My Post Adoption Life.

The tree of life… | hushabyemountainblog
https://hushabyemountainblog.wordpress.com/2015/04/14/the-tree-of-life
Our adventures in love with two adopted children. What’s in a name… →. The tree of life…. I need to dismantle our Easter tree, but feel sad to say goodbye to the holidays and whole days at a time with my children. This has become one of our family traditions, picking wiggly twisty sticks from the garden and decorating them with mummy’s collection of plastic and wooden eggs gleaned from german carboot sales and the children’s own carefully painted eggs. 6 thoughts on “ The tree of life….

Remember Who You Are! |
https://adoptaroundtheclock.wordpress.com/2015/03/06/remember-who-you-are
A family created through birth and adoption. Living, laughing, loving, attempting to theraputically parent and survive. Remember Who You Are! March 6, 2015. October 14, 2015. No-one can dispute the fact that having children changes your life and adoption even more so. It is all consuming. From the minute you embark on the assessment process, through to living with children that often have additional and complex needs, adoption can dominate every waking (and often sleeping) moment of your life. Doing thin...
