Afterwards I'm usually glad we did it, but it takes me several days of planning/psyching myself into it to make it happen. Spontaneous outings are practically non-existent for us at this point! :)ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17389438026722002843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2216462056001391110.post-36992497262538739042017-04-09T18:00:38.518-05:002017-04-09T18:00:38.518-05:00As an introverted Mum, this is fab.

I used to have a child who was very 'pumpkin-prone' and this, combined with my strong introversion, meant that I used to dread outings or big days. He is now 12, and his sister is 10 so none of this has been an issue for years and years. However, I now have a 3 month old (and may have another little one) so I'm already looking for ideas about how to do outings better with 'round 2'. Also, I have a husband who 'breaks all the rules' too. It frequently horrifies me, but I try and stay quiet and let him do it his way. Sometimes things do go all pear-shaped and I'm left quietly shaking my head. Othertimes he gets away with things and teaches me to be a bit more flexible.Shelley Knoll-Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10505237879351743288noreply@blogger.com
