What a privilege it was to spend the weekend in the company of this talented tribe of literary folk... What a privilege it was to return home to my own clan too. Clearly they missed me terribly. Swipe to see what I mean...! 📸 @candygourlay (Apologies that some of you can't quite be seen. I had a little technical difficulty squeezing us all in and there was no Nick or Caryn to fix it!😉💖) . . . . . #weekendinspiration #scbwi #picturebookretreat #picturebookauthor #illustrators #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #booklovers #childrenspicturebook #childrensbookart #childrensbooks #mumlifebalance #mamacameraclub #ourlifeinsquares #hertford #ware #imamumand #mumlifeuk #mumlifeisthebestlife #tantrum #toddlersofig #joyfulmamas #joysofparenthood #honestlyparents #honestlymothering #honestmotherhood #theylikethechildminderbetter 🦃 G R A T I T U D E 🦃... . I know it's not Thanksgiving, but we are in the States right now, so I figured turkeys were quite appropriate and surely any day is great day to feel thankful, right? I snapped this snap of the boys in a juice bar a few days ago. I really wish the UK had more fresh juice bars - it's a brilliant way of ensuring something more beneficial than crackers finds its way into the boys' tummies! The only downside to juice bars is you have to be a bit patient (not my forte)... But at least this one had some great quotes on wall to read as we waited - and I'm grateful for that! The quote in the top right corner stood out to me. I love it, so kudos to whoever it was who created it: 'Each day I am grateful for nights that turned into mornings, friends that turned into family, dreams that turned into reality and likes that turned into love.' There is so much to feel grateful for. I hope I always remember to feel this way. What are you feeling thankful for today?💖 . . . . . #thanksgiving🦃 #feelingthankful #familytravelblog #familytravels #joyfulmamas #motherhoodalive #motherhoodinspired #motherhoodrising #motherhoodunited #familyholidays #familygoals❤️ #parentblogger #parentsofinstagram #parentinglife #alittlebitofeverything #ourlifeinsquares #londonmums #hertsbloggers #ware #hertford #mamamoments #gratitude🙏 #gratitudequotes #quotestoinspire #mamacameraclub #coolmumclub #snaphappybritmums #mumbloggersuk #mumblog #lovebooks📚 🏖️ S A N D P I T 🏖️... . Erm... I've no idea why California is famous for its beaches... Nope! No idea at all. Hugh thinks it's because they have some the world's most epic sandpits though. The holiday spam continues... As do my thoughts about writing, books and all things wordy. I finally finished reading 'Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine' (and highly recommend it); have managed to book my ticket to the #scbwi Agents' Party later this year (any one else joining me?) and have been planning my next #picbookplay activity ('Oi!' fans are going to love it). Please tell me I'm not the only person who can't switch off when they go on holiday... 😜🤭 . . . . . #busymind #activeminds #kesgray #jimfield #picbookplay #writingcommunityofinstagram #writersofig #authorlife #authorssupportingauthors #travelwithchildren #getoutsideandplay #playoutdoors #playoutside #playwithbooks #learningthroughplaying #playingtolearn #ourwhimsicaldays #ouroutdooradventures #momentsinmotherhood #joyfulparenting #momofboyslife #momofboys💙 🐛 B U G S 🐞.... . The holiday spam has come to an abrupt halt for now as my phone has developed a bug and won't let me continue to upload anything to my stories... So I'll just have to spam you a little here instead... I'm really excited about this trip... It is the first time we've taken Hugh to California and it feels nice to introduce him to some places we've visited before (not that he'll recall any of it of course!) AND... I hoping to have some exciting news to share with you all when we get back... Assuming the bugs disappear first. 😜☀️💖 . . . . . #imamumand #sorryitsrainingathome #alittlebitofeverything #holidayspam #ourlifeinsquares #ourcolourfullife #ourwhimsicaldays #ouroutdooradventures #californiadreaming #familytravelblog #familytravels #familyfuntime #sneakpreview #snaphappybritmums #mamamoments #mamacameraclub #joyfulmamas #mumsnetparents #adventureswithkids #travelwithchildren #travelwithkids #travelbloggervibes #londonmums #hertsbloggers
