control freakery!!!

Communication has been breaking down in this house of ours : pinching, snatching and arguing is back in force amongst the youngsters ~ also we have a strong pull towards the 'Telling Each Other What To Do' trend. Panic ensues occasionally as our eldest slips through our grasp like a slippery fish, avoiding answering any tasks, ideas or shared learning opportunities.

On her own, she's on fire! Gallops ahead with idea after idea, writing reams on her chosen projects, stacking up tadpoles, tea stalls, cooking projects. But a slight breeze of attention from a parent and the spinning top veers from its axle.

Letting go letting go letting go is the theme. Trusting we'll find an equilibrium again soon.
