I am not Wonder Woman

It is official I am not Wonder Woman, the reason I know this, is because if I were, my feet would not be as painful as they are now. The last two days have not gone as well on the homeschooling front as I would have liked. Firstly as stated before I am human not Wonder Woman therefore can only do one thing at a time!

I have worked solidly from 9am until 6pm for two days travelling around London running presentation skills training and then going out networking both nights. This has meant that Isabella has not been taught for two days. This is quite a weird feeling as I feel guilty that she is missing out on me and also her education. Then reality takes over and I have to confess to not being perfect and that this will happen from time to time as I have to work occasionally and I enjoy my work.

My friend Gemma called me up the other day and made me promise to have time out for me. This is difficult when I believe my role as mother and teacher is full time. What I have learned from these two days however is that it is just as important to have this time away. Firstly so your child can experience other peoples ways and secondly so I can come back into the situation with a fresh approach and maybe some new ideas from my experiences in the last two days. Otherwise we would both stagnate.

The most important thing I have learnt is to not wear these shoes for longer than four hours!
