failing

My son went for his P's yesterday and failed I was so pleased with his attuide on how he handle it and said book me in again

It made me wonder as a parent how do you react when your child fails something or when you fail yourself because if your children see you reaction is that teaching them that failing isn't accepted into todays world

I'll be 1st to say I fial all the time and if I stopped to think about it every day but I don't think about it because I accept I'm good at some things and terribale at other things

wouldn't the world be boring if we where all the same and didn't fail

I think it's cool to fail and try again because you learn so much more the second time around and I think it's okay to help your child to accept the things they do well and also accept the things they don't do well

it'll make them a better person in the long run

Holidays

This is my youngest teen enjoying his lunch at the park as he placed his head downwards I couldn't help but snap a photo.It was a lovely clear day and he had a lovely grin on his face as I clicked the camera

time flies

We have had a good holiday doing all sorts of things from going to the pool to staying away for a few nights

For the long weekend we headed off to St Helens and had a fabo time

Boys loved the water and wave ski but it was so relaxing not having to do anything at all if we didn't want to on the way home we called into a Bric a Brac shop.Boy they had some really old things on display which I hadn't seen in years

I also learn to have a fun time you don't have to buy everything we did picnic lunches and went to teh beaches which are open for everybody to enjoy

Boys loved the swimming pool where we stay as well and that was really good when it was evening or the weather was bad for the day
