My daughter’s return to school this week has signalled the beginning of yet another year of worry. Not mine I hasten to add, but hers. For a child so capable and confident, she worries more than anyone I’ve ever known. Since she began school three years ago, every end-of-year report has noted this particular trait of hers and mentioned specific methods will may help in the coming year...

In late July, we were on our two weeks holidays in sunny West Cork – my hard-working hubby, the two kids and myself were renting a house, as we do every year. But what’s completely different about this year is that as a County Councillor, I am never off the clock. I remember one gloriously sunny day when the kids couldn’t wait to hit the beach to build sandcastles, surf and hunt for crabs...

Much and all as we’d like to bond with each and every fellow mum in the school yard, it’s simply not possible to get on with everybody. I consider myself relatively easygoing (although I’m sure my children would wholeheartedly disagree) and I attempt to find a common ground with the majority of people I spend time with, but let’s face it, some people and their personalities are just...

Like most children, I screamed bloody murder when I awoke after a particularly hellish nightmare. The notion that I sounded like horror personified was the last thing on my mind as I shrieked for my mother and attempted to unpeel myself from my sweat-soaked sheets. I paid scant regard to my mother’s demeanour once she eventually crossed my threshold and held me close. Was she frightened by my...

So as I sit here expressing at 2.30am I thought it was a good opportunity to send an update on our progress. If I was still pregnant, the babies would be at 34 weeks now, but they are actually five weeks old today. 34 weeks was the stage I was aiming to be sectioned at so it is strange to think that I could have been about to have the babies if all had been plain sailing! To think how well they...

Time flies so they say. The flying of time is not something I dwell on too regularly, but there are points in your life when the speed of life is marked out in frightening relief. Right now, for me, is one of those times. It’s back-to-school time and I’m feeling nostalgic and a bit sad. Summer has gone too quickly (and without any sun, but let’s not mention that, it’s too painful) and in a...

I’ve been crying quite a lot lately. Given the weather we’ve been having, that’s probably quite understandable, but I don’t think it’s just because it’s cold enough to bring hot-water bottles to bed. And please don’t mention the menopause or the perimenopause, or anything with the word ‘pause’ in the title: I’m way, way too young for that… No, the primary reason for my recent...

The last few weeks I’ve had a weight loss battle going through my mind. Not the usual one of “I really need to lose more weight and get active” but the one of “I’m happier the way I am”. While there is nothing wrong with the later, I know that it’s not really the way I should be thinking – or is it? Over a year ago I began to lose weight and in all I’d lost over twenty pounds. I...

The first time around, weaning was terrifying. I thought it was hard enough getting to grips with bottles, formula and night feeds, but just as you were gaining confidence with that job, lo and behold, the goalposts are moved. All of a sudden you’re trying to think of child-friendly recipes, suitable snacks, timing solids and bottles and God forbid, the terror of the baby choking on a piece of...
