How gorgeous is today!?!? Very gorgeous I say J You can tell summer is on the way when we are eating juicy mangoes for morning tea in the inflatable pool with the beautiful sunshine beaming overhead. Magnificent J I am experiencing one of those glorious natural highs right now where I am appreciative of all the positive and lovely things I have in my life. It feels like my heart is going to burst it is full of so much love! Saying that reminds me of a recent conversation I had with Sophie...
At least once a month, Sophie and I have a special spa night, or as she calls it, “spare night”, during which we soak in the tub, put hair treatments in and have a good giggle and chat about the usual topics on a 4 year olds mind (playing, imaginary friends, lollies). This particular night Sophie was remarking on how much room I was taking up in the bath as I laid down. She then asked why my tummy was so big. Hmmm...how was I to answer this in such a way that would promote a positive body image to Sophie and encourage her to love herself regardless of how she looks in the future (seriously, does being a role model ever stop???). Aha, I’ve got it! “Well you see sweet heart” I began “my heart is full of SOOOO much love for you and Elliott that it simply ran out of room in my chest and fell into my tummy. That is why my tummy is so big, it’s full of love” J
Enjoy this beautiful day everyone J
