Wooohoooo Spring Break!

Wooohoooo Spring Break!!! Chad Hogan!!!

If you are familiar with the Scottish comedian Kevin Bridges you will know who Chad Hogan is! If not, go Google it for a wee giggle! 

So what are you up to over Spring Break?

We have no travel plans, we are going to use the time to start prepping for our move in the Summer from Dubai to Antwerp! Starting the process of selling some of our stuff, preparing documents and informing the relevant people of our relocation. However, we still have a six year old boy full of energy to keep amused for the next three weeks!

We decided to pop him into Spring Camp at school for the second week to break it up a bit!

There will also be a lot of Uno, bike rides, drawing, made up games (check out my post on Instagram to see the coffee table/coins combo!) softplay and of course…….snacks!

I love the holidays, the slower mornings, more time with my boys but I also need to keep some remnants of a routine or I lose my mind a little!!

I now understand that this is because my driving human need is Certainty!

If you don't know about your six human needs you have to check it out! This has been a game changer for me and helps me understand myself and how I am feeling.

The Stepping Into Parenthood digital resource was created based on this concept and the first part of it is a quiz to identify what your driving human need is, cool right!? We still use the worksheets from the 10 steps in our daily lives over here at Chez Osborne!

So whatever you are up to be sure to pay attention to your own needs and create a routine baggy enough to live in. Doesn’t have to be written in stone but it can help reduce the overwhelm that can sometimes be experienced with the cries of “I'm boooorrrred!” “Muuuuummmm!” “Daaaaadddd!” “I’m huuunnnggrrryyyy!”

Need anything, you know just to shout right?!

Here for you,
