Happy International Womenโ€™s Dayโ€ฆ Iโ€™m lucky enough to have grown up with independent & strong women all around me. Itโ€™s where I get my resilience & determination from.

Itโ€™s something that I want to ensure Isla has too: to be resilient is to have patience and strength. To keep a smile, even if deep down itโ€™s painful. Determination is to have focus and passion. To keep going even if the end is not quite in sight.

I can see a lot of this in her alreadyโ€ฆ she is far more confident than I ever was at 10 and she knows her own mind. Which I love.

Now I need to make sure she has self confidence, self awareness and self love. So she can endure all that life throws at her and she can listen to her body & mind to guide her. 

I love that Iโ€™m still learning things about myself on this motherhood journey: some of those things Iโ€™m learning from Isla.

Iโ€™m very proud of my baby girl ๐Ÿฅฐ

Get cleaning the air fryer with meโ€ฆ ๐Ÿงผ A slightly different post from me tonight: a handy little tip for cleaning your air fryer.โฃ
โฃ
Thereโ€™s something about a cleaning tip that makes cleaning that bit ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ. We use the air fryer everyday, we love it. Keeping it clean is important.โฃ
โฃ
So: โฃ

โ–ช๏ธ add ๐—ณ๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐—น๐—ถ๐—พ๐˜‚๐—ถ๐—ฑ to the traysโฃ
โ–ช๏ธ add water to ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ the plates inside the trayโฃ
โ–ช๏ธ air fry for ๐Ÿฏ ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜€โฃ
โฃ
If youโ€™ve only been cooking vegetables and things like that then this is ๐˜ด๐˜ถ๐˜ง๐˜ง๐˜ช๐˜ค๐˜ช๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต to clean the trays. Simply rinse and dry. โฃ
โฃ
If youโ€™ve cooked meats or food that sticks to the trays, like cheese, then give it a good wash afterwards. The air frying will have helped to release those foods!โฃ
โฃ

I just love it. Itโ€™ll be the only flower I canโ€™t actually kill. I either water them too much or not enoughโ€ฆ it makes me quite sad. I have a wisteria not doing so great at the moment, so I need tips!!โฃ

Isla is so close to her level 6 certificate. Sheโ€™s been coming on in leaps and bounds over the last few weeksโ€ฆ her confidence is definitely improving with her @gymfinitykids classes.

Today was awards week for Islaโ€™s class, and I love they they dish out โ€œpart wayโ€ certificates to those who havenโ€™t quite levelled up yet. Everyone gets a certificate. Itโ€™s so lovely.

With my discount code they waive the joining fee, which is ยฃ30, so donโ€™t forget to use it when signing up your child to @gymfinitykidsโ€ฆ

Dark design schemes can create the perfect backdrop for furniture and artwork that features bolder colours to make them pop. Likewise, a darker piece of furniture, such as a black chest of drawers, can be styled out with brightly coloured vases, lamps and other decorative elements for a unique look.ย I love the dark decor in people's home.
