#126: Sammelwahn

Last we swapped again, namely Disney cards and we do not have 7 Missing piece. The father of Princess collecting, it is the first book of its kind, was motivated and had everything neatly sorted and packed into the book, at least that was the first thought, until he noticed, that his daughter and wife had already taken out cards, to see this. When re-sorting and for us to see through the double, you could tell a certain restlessness and subtle curse statements.

When I pointed, he from the third anthology then all food chains, What a reduction, Will hate Sparefroh and market day, he still has not taken quite seriously, but the first time everything is still collecting sweet and fresh. I am a consumer-suffering terror victims, that even the semi-voluntarily exposing the whole madness, because if not I collect, Collect all at once grandmas and grandpas for the offspring with, and therefore we have also 2 Plush Banana

#121: Panacea

My son has the opportunity this weekend to get the injuries and scars of his uncle to view, who was seriously injured in a car accident. Again and again he had to pull the T-shirt and show him the scars, up / down, up / down and again the question, show it to my mom. I have not seen the injury, as it is it just uncomfortable and I can well understand. This is about dramatic events, to share that are just not.

Nevertheless, my Jr did not want to give up, because it was important to him, and it seemed like he was looking at exactly. So came the ultimate argument, Come show me again and then Mama, which then gives you a kiss.

Is not it wonderful, how important and all-healing are still kisses and kisses. Why do we forget this adults only charms, that we as children have every pain and every sorrow disappear leaving? And what happens, when we are not well, we employ to feel sorry for ourselves, us a kiss of our sweetheart (and this can not miteinschliessen also friends) pick up.

#120: babble out

Is it, things that we as parents tell our children, do not agree as? My Princess complains, I tell, that she was suffering from jet under, and in such massive, Me I am old barrier more than once about her tone and expression. I should so stop telling nonsense, I said yes just tell the, At night because they want to block my bed and wanders page (it is also still hot). Thus, in my opinion, is fully justified. But not for them! It has a different feeling, Exercise, Understanding of what is jet lag? Or is uncool and not too bright. I must say also, that they almost 10 Years never (!!!!!) was voluntary tired.

I only know, I earlier (I was young), was annoyed about my mama, because they have unpleasant or embarrassing things told stories. I could sink into the ground. I do not always, or I see things differently now this?

Travel story: New York and Children

On the plane home I asked an American, if it works well with a 3 year as long distances to fly, his daughter is just a few months old and he is uncertain. The princess flew for the first time 6 Months and to Hamburg, to be shipped to the island of Foehr. Today, it is almost 10 Years and has more air miles, when I was at that age – namely 0, I the first time only with 19 Years have flown. So far she has seen parts of North America, Germany (div. Towns), Barcelona, Cran Canaria, Egypt, Amsterdam, multiply London, repeatedly Rome, … and I probably forgot something. Rambo Junior started early and has similar 2 Brought transatlantic of flights and a few European flights behind.

Of course it is hard to fly with children, and especially to see cities. But it is also stressful times at home. New York is a huge city and this size alone is impressive even for children. Alone can get around on the road for a tour full of kids impressive sights to be, we must not forget, that what we as “tedious” and “normal” watch, are quite different for children. Fire, Ambulances and police vehicles, who look different and sound – We were fortunate, that right down the street was a fire station.

Der Centralpark, a green oasis, where baseball was played, since then had to be watched on television every night, whether the New York Yankees are playing. The turtles in Central Park, who have kept their heads out of the water fun, the squirrels, the criss-cross are gone, in search of food. The butterfly, the cheeky it sits on the dress and not float away. These are all small adventure.

One of the highlights was of course the American Museum for natural history (known from Night at the Museum), alone and the fat kiss, the stone figure of our junior has given of Easter Island, has shown me, that happiness for children must be maybe sometimes great but not expensive.

#111: Omazeit

My Princess is on for a whole week “undressed” – zur Oma und Opa, to start your holiday. I can still remember, I was allowed to come into my summer vacation for a week or a few days after my grandma Kaisermuehlen. I loved it, because I at her all’ the allowed, which was forbidden at home (what was wrong, but it has become so felt). Late at night I lay in bed with her and my grandma while reading a novel doctor, I switched between mystery novels crown prince. For Würstelstand it went with the Christmas cookie jar, so I got my beloved french fries.

It was simply wonderful and no matter how many times I was bored at home, this boredom would never have come with my grandmother.

#106: Rugby

I am a gifted sports event-viewer. I can inspire me for almost everything and just sports, that are outside the mainstream, my heart belongs, My voice and my use. Besides Hockey, Rowing, American Football und Handball, I have now ventured a first attempt with rugby. I must say, that it was the final Bundesliga game (Danube against Stade) and I'd heard a lot about the particular game, However, the rules, Sequence and structure absolutely knew nothing and that nothing.

I quickly considered the most important rules in my internet site, Tanya, however, was so professionally prepared, that they even watched videos on Youtube, what but neither helped. But it's not so bad not to understand, when you realize, that the surrounding people also do not know. Embarrassing it is then only, when clapping and cheering while the other team has an advantage. Skillfully with lots of charm and witty commentary to circumnavigate then such moments.

This sport is wonderfully earthy. Ein Kontaktsport, but where I still had the feeling, that it is not about pure brutality, but targeted use of force with a lot of willingness to run and coordination feeling. In the 2 Half time (and I have no idea how long it takes a) one has seen except cramps no serious injuries, no Haxerlstellen (as in football).

But the best is, that this could be a sport, is for my son the RIGHT … Draufhaun and “Fight” for permission. The Rugby egg we have already (DANKE an Max), the stubble on the shoes he wants and the green dress of the Danube Union shall be his equipment …

#104: Voltage

Actually I wanted to write about something completely different and banal, but the situation with my son in the morning was very stressful, I needed until now, slowly reduce the tension in me. Strenuous situations in life there are always with children and sometimes you handled it with left and sometimes not. And today I had the feeling, that I could achieve anything, neither me to help him get out of the situation. While I can feel directly, as he builds up an internal tension in itself, I am busy my inner tension not to explode. So it's a loose-loose situation and this knowledge makes it for me at the moment only worse.

Of course it is so, that it is only a snapshot and I love my children, trying to do the best for both, tailored to their needs – alone and that's a task, just because everyone / every need anything else – , but it does not always hold, and frustrated the, makes them angry and sad and shows, I'm not perfect, Make mistakes, but learn from it. Or rather, try it.

#103: Parent representatives in kindergarten

Since this year the kindergarten my son has parent representatives, which should be the voice of the parents, the teachers and vice versa. I'm a parent representative, I was asked and unfortunately the system is not comparable to the school.

The reason why these parents' representatives was introduced, was to, that kindergartens should take no funds / donations they receive. It starts with the processing of graphene photo and ends with the children's parents-festivals, wo Buffets (However, there are additional challenges) should be organized. In between there are other issues as Kundergartenabhängig own photo CDs, Federpenale, Excursions, Acquisitions …

What we face as a parent representative, that there is no coherent and consistent information, Rights and obligations concerning the legal framework or (particular with respect to the tasting at festivals). What is the difference, that may be placed in a school at a school party cakes and pies, and the responsibility is not seemingly in the school, However, in kindergarten we face problems, that not even a purchased pie with bill and MHD may be provided, because the cold chain can not be traced?

So I'll deal with me in the summer and go to search for causes and solution implementation. Have nothing else to do ;).

#87: Muttertag oder so

My mom is absolutely right, when she says, that every day should be Mother's Day. Just as well as Father's Day, pick out the one days, where does a particular person, they can live up, Blumerln brings over a few, brings only the bad conscience and the industry some.

My 3 year son has quite ashamed Added on Wednesday night has its flower pot on my table, because this is for me, This morning I had learned my song then sing even, as he squeezed my handmade card in the hand. And my daughter with 9 ask me since Wednesday, if I like eh candles and flowers, and the colors red and purple …. In between I Gezicke, To cope with tantrums and cuddles. So everything the same and some bells and whistles to, dear to me as an honest – I love you, do not like you now, hold me tight, go away,

#84: no holiday stress

Yesterday I was able to experience my own childhood dream or experience rather. My daughter had her first lunge-hour! Riding was since she 3 is an issue but between them they had the opportunity to the different sports, motion- und Interessensgebiete zu erkunden und auszuprobieren. Particularly, weil Reiten körperliche Stabilität und Entwicklung benötigt.

Ich konnte als Kind und Jugendlich auch alles ausprobieren, was mich interessiert hat. Bei mir waren es vornehmlich Instrumente und musische Kurse, wobei ich nach einem Jahr oder noch viel öfters früher nicht mehr wollte. Alleine das Singen im Chor, alone, in der Gruppe oder das Theaterspielen waren eine Konstante von Volksschule bis zur Matura. Nur Reiten das war finanziell bei meinen Eltern nicht drinnen, es ist damals wie heute ein kostenintensives Hobby. Vielleicht weil ich alles ausprobieren konnte und sehr frei in meinen Entscheidungen war, versuche ich diese Möglichkeiten meinen Kindern so weiterzugeben. Der große Unterschied ist, dass meine Tochter wesentlich zäher ist und länger bei den meisten Sachen durchhält als ich. Was aber auch dazu führt, dass ihre Woche gut befüllt ist, mit Ballett (since 6 Years), mit Fussball (since 3 Years) und abwechselnd hat sie schon gemacht bzw. macht es noch Judo, Singen, Vital Training, Voltigieren und eben jetzt Reiten. Auf die Frage einer Freundin an meine Tochter, wann sie denn dann mich sieht, wenn sie fast täglich etwas machen will, kam: “Wieso ich schlaf eh zu Hause und Wochenende gibt es auch noch …”.

I think, machne Anlagen hat sie dann doch wohl von mir :)!
