Mothering Blossoms - An Introduction

And, here we go...

I suppose it makes sense to mark my entrance into the world of blogging with an introduction of sorts - both for myself and this blog.

I'm Marie, and I have the privilege of raising two young children with my amazing husband.  I'm currently on maternity leave, and loving even the most challenging of days!

This blog has been a bud in the back of my mind for quite some time.  I have no doubt that it will evolve over time, but at present my vision for it is simple.  This is a place to capture and share some of my discoveries in motherhood.  So far, they've been varied - from foods my picky toddler will actually eat, to activity ideas, to general realisations about my kidlets.

So, much of this will revolve around said kidlets.  Mini Muffin is rapidly coming up on two and a half.  She's happy, articulate, strong willed, busy, affectionate, strong willed... did I mention strong willed?  She currently loves reading, soccer, singing, anything involving paint, going to the park, and paying close attention to her baby brother. Her brother, Little Smiling Man, is now six months.  He's incredibly happy, laid back, and loves to screech!  He's recently started solids and sits unsupported, so it's a pretty exciting time developmentally.  All in all, I'm one lucky mama!

And, I'll leave it there for now.  I've much more to write about in time!
