Delaying School

Where do I even begin with this one? It’s been a tumultuous period of time. I was going to say for us, and I do still mean us, but when I say us, I mean the 4 of us. Not just me and Amar. We’ve all been getting asked questions, some assumptions. Shreya’s been on the frontline of some questions too about when her brother will be starting school, and of course those questions are then fired back at us.  I started thinking about this blog post a few weeks ago and it probably would have …

How do you like your coffee?

I promised a mini review of our newly purchased coffee machine over the weekend, so here it is, only a tad later than I promised. So, firstly let me explain why we bought one! We love coffee as much as the next person, drinking coffee has been one of those rituals that become a force of habit. It's part of our slow weekend mornings, EVERY weekend.  Well, Saturdays I'm usually running around the house whilst drinking a coffee, packing Shreya's swim kit and bits, and attempting some dodgy mascara …

Christmas Nativity – why ‘I’m over it’!

I love Christmas! I’m more excited for Christmas than both of my children are, or so it seems. But, I’ve always loved it  - as a child, married B.C (before children) and now more than ever with both of my 2 children. What do I love about it? Well, it’s mainly the festivities that surround it. It’s not the ACTUAL day. That’s always a little underwhelming. The bits I love .. It’s all the coziness. The lights, the decorations, the good spirit, everyone’s jolly about having well-deserved time off, …

‘Firsts and Lasts’ of Six

If I sit down and actually think about something that’s been on my mind a lot recently, it’s that my daughter who is 6 is in a brand new phase of her development. A phase that makes me feel a little queasy at times.  It’s something that crops up daily at the moment, sometimes fading away into the background but always there. I’ve talked a bit in recent posts about her ‘first’ real experience of going out to "Trick or Treat" a couple of weeks ago, her ‘first’ real experience of Diwali last …

About Me

Hello! Welcome to my new blog called Keeping You In Mind, a small space in the gigantic world of social media where I’ll mainly be talking about motherhood and sharing stories up-close about our family life in Warwickshire. I love writing and photography! So, when I joined Instagram back in October 2016 (latecomer), I instantly felt drawn to the mums, women, parents who share every-day life as it unfolds. It’s been right up my street connecting with such fantastic people where some days  I feel …

  • T R E E The Christmas tree has been selected
    3 years ago by keeping_you_in_mind T R E E The Christmas tree has been selected and bought! After debating all week about whether to go back to having a pre-lit artificial one this year after the last 4 years of buying fresh. Amar won the argument and we went back to a muddy Christmas tree farm! You can’t beat that experience with small children. We also chose some new tree ornaments which is a family tradition we’ve had going for years. The kids always get to handpick one new one each Christmas. There were some questionable ones in the mix in the decoration shop today?!?

    3 years ago by keeping_you_in_mind D E C E M B E R Only 24 days to go! But it’s the build up that’s the best for me. Here’s how we kicked off the festive month today, at the Kenilworth Family Fun Day in the square. There wasn’t loads going on but it was enough to keep the kids really happy. We bought Christmas cards for the kids to give out to school and nursery friends, listened to a brass band in Waitrose playing all the Christmas carols and looked at all the pretty lights, wreaths and trees that are now just everywhere. I swear

    4 years ago by keeping_you_in_mind N U R S E R Y Another week at nursery done! I get asked questions by lots of people on a regular basis about whether Sajjan enjoys nursery, how many hours/days does he do, is it a mainstream nursery! Yes, it’s a mainstream nursery and he’s been attending for just over 12 months now. He does 3 sessions a week! Is he happy? He’s not had the easiest time settling. We’ve had peaks and troughs. There’s no easy ride with this child, he started off unhappy then settled beautifully, and recently has been through another challenging time. But, today
