Welcome to my world

So I'm about to hop on this blogging bandwagon. Inspired by many great bloggers, and embracing an old childhood passion - writing. I don't care if anyone reads this but I want to find solace in words like I once did as a child. I used to spend hours on my own with my written language book, creating rambling stories. Possibly quite terrible ones, but entertaining to myself.

A little bit of egocentricity... I have many roles in my own world. Firstly I'm a wife, not the best by any stretch but I try! I am also an Early Childhood Teacher, albeit part time these days. Lastly, but probably most importantly I am a Mama. I have an energetic, loving five year old boy Dominik, and a sparkly tenacious three year old girl Chelsea. Actually she's three and three quarters. The latter being very important to her.
We live in suburbia in Auckland, New Zealand and try to make life as fun and simple as possible.

2011 is going to bring many things to our small family. Firstly we are setting out to reduce clutter. Our modest house is full of paraphernalia and we are out to reduce and recycle it. I have decided that for future presents we will buy only small useful things. I am over the big plastic fantastic toys that take up much of our small living space. Secondly, we are going to try and be healthier. The kids are super healthy, but us as parents we indulge in a few too many treats and not enough exercise. We get away with it due to our fast metabolisms but inside I'm sure things don't look too good.
