    My son is 7 today, but he’s never had a birthday party with his school pals due to Covid. He’s off school currently, doing his 17 day quarantine & his teacher just sent him a Seasaw recording of his class singin Happy Birthday to him! He’s delighted. Some people are pure sound!🙃

    Not pretending to know anything about #DesmondTutu But he did say something that stuck with me. “There comes a point where we need to stop just pulling people out of the river. We need to go upstream and find out why they are falling in.” A wise approach to #mentalhealth?

    Out walking & thinking about what it must be like to have to carry keys in my hand, vary my route or worry about the steps behind me. I desperately hope my daughter will grow up in a different world, because this is all kinds of wrong #shewasgoingforarun

    Random Thought: Remember when you’d go to Croke Park you used to pay these random lads to ‘mind the car’ when it was parked on the street while we were at the match…. 😂😂😂

    Me: “Are you doing homework on a Sunday morning?” 11 yr old: “nope, I’m going through The Guide with a highlighter like Nana does” 😂😂😂 I think what they highlight might be different, but still nice to see traditions being passed on 😂😂😂 #RTEGuide @rte

    My son seems to be approaching his 1st yr Christmas tests the same way I approach my NCT. Do nothing beforehand and you’ll find out afterwards what needs to be done 😂😂😂

    I’ve just turned into my Dad. While using the tiniest screwdriver in the world to change the batteries on one of the kid’s toys,… I heard myself say…. “Stand back, you’re in me light” 😂😂

    My parenting patience survived lockdowns, home schooling and parenting from work… But, the arrival of this into the house this week, may well break me 😂😂😂😂😂
