Kidspiration

"Kidspiration" focuses on the lessons that my kids have taught me. Here's a testament to the fact that if we are willing, we can learn from anyone.

“Mummy, I am having scrambled eggs and sausages for breakfast. Do you want some?” Are you wondering what that question has to do with guarding your authenticity? Read on!

My youngest son Richard used the visitor’s bathroom. When he was through, he flushed, washed his hands and was about to leave when he noticed that the reservoir of water was almost finished. He turned on the tap and began to refill it. I wondered why he was taking so long in the washroom and… [Read More]
