Greetings fellow babies, mums and dads. Today, I, Zach, have taken over Mummy’s blog. A couple of days ago, Mummy did a video about things that wind her up. This is really ironic because there are lots of things that SHE does that makes me cross…
She is always in a rush which is REALLY annoying when I want to carefully examine a blade of grass.
I’m not allowed to eat stones. I tried to eat one last week but there was a high pitched shriek and Mummy dive bombed me to take it away.
Mummy doesn’t like sharing. She forgets that if I see food then I have a claim to it. Day after day she sits there eating crisps or cake and I have to make a major fuss to get my rightful share.
My taste buds are developing so things I liked last week are no longer liked this week. I want Mummy’s lunch not what she has given me. Why does she get grumpy when I refuse to eat my own meal?
My big brother and sister always want to play with me and it’s exhausting trying to keep them both happy. Especially as I mainly want to play with Ollie (but Mummy won’t let me, big meany)
I want to explore. The kitchen, the bathroom, the stairs. Cupboards are fun to empty. I have a feeling Mummy hasn’t forgiven me for the Pimms incident but oh well…
I am always on the wrong side of the stairgate. I don’t know how this happens. I don’t know how Mummy manages to do it but whichever side I’m on the other is more interesting
Mummy’s phone. It’s a toy, right? So why can’t I play with it?!
I like investigating. I think I may be a scientist one day. Look how much fun I had exploring gravity and the properties of water:
The most annoying thing about Mummy is her mood swings. She is happy when I walk or talk then is upset that I am growing up too fast. Make your mind up!
*OK I have snatched control of the keyboard from Zach’s hands and would like to raise awareness of National Children’s Day 2017, where the rights and freedoms of children everywhere are highlighted. I wrote this post to try to put myself in Zach’s shoes (tiny little cute shoes!) and see the world through his eyes. It has made me realise how much he has to learn still and how much I do too.
Give your children a cuddle today, let them know they are loved, let them know they are important.
Think of the less fortunate children, those affected by war, illness, abuse.
Let’s build a better world for them to inherit. Let’s do it today.
