Welcome to Baby Brain, a space where I – Charlotte, hi! – write about family life with three small children – Poppet (m, 5 years), Pickle (m, 4 years) and Peach (f, 1 year.) Those are not their real names. These are real stories from our days.
Evening all! How have you been? I’ve had a bit of a week in that it’s been absolutely fine and lovely, but also I’ve been on a self doubt spiral from which I thought I might never emerge.
It’s been… Fun.
Anywho. I am back, back again, and with me I have brought an old, abandoned draft I was this close to pressing delete on when clearing out my digital clutter the other day, but decided to re-read instead. I’m glad that I did because honestly, what a mood.
If you’ve ever endured a sick day with your children, this one is for you.
We begin.
