It’s Mother’s Day tomorrow – Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mums out there!!
Give yourselves a big pat on the back cos we all know as mums we do the best we can – always – & we give all of ourselves to be mums.

i wanna tell MY MUMMY – You are the very best in the world – i would not be where i am today or be the person i am today if not for you – I LOVE YOU MUMMY!!! & Thank you so very very much for being my mummy!

& some ask why we are all happy to be mums.
Well, cos the little ones who steal our hearts – here’s one example:

Here’s a proud moment for me as a mummy – my little guy doing the “Look, Mum, No Legs!!”. For those not familiar with what he is riding on, it’s a bicycle without pedals – this is called a Laufrad here. Basically, it teaches the kids balance & then in a couple of years when they are ready for the big bikes, u just get them one without training wheels & off they go.

If u can’t make out what he says at the end of the video, here it is:”Sweetheart, i’m home.”
😉 cute huh!?
He learnt this from a Winnie the Pooh video – hahhahaha 😉

(NOTE: Sigh! there is something wrong with the video displays in LJ – so please click this link until they resolve the issue – thanks.)

(Note: As of 16/06/2007, issue resolved – the new video link ends with links to other videos that are not mine.)

Just a little post to show off my little flyer for my little business:

Actually, i’ve been getting anxious about my 1st book party – sort of like a Tupperware party (those of u who know Tupperware). i’ve done some emails, some letterbox drops – but those are mainly to tell people about the business – not the party – now i have to get going with sending invites to the book party out – sigh! It’s for May 25th – so pray that all goes well, people come & buy lots 😉

That’s it for now – i might do another post tonight with some cute Tobi stuff.

Happy May day to all those who got a holiday from it. As i understand it, May Day is to celebrate/reward the Labour (working people) – which is why some places call it Labour Day. My darling husband didn’t get a May Day – he had to work in UK & is on his way home now.

Now for some exciting news which i have been holding in for some time – till it actually happened – well, it has happened!! i’m in business! – Yep, little o’me. What business? Well, take a guess – if u know me well, u might come close to getting it right.

i’m in the book business now – it’s a home business, being a rep for a publisher – Usborne Books at Home.

Basically, i let people know that i have English books for children (birth to teens) for sale & they either come & have a look at the samples/catalogues or check the website (my personal one is Not Yet set up – i’ll let u guys know once that’s up) – then they place orders thru me. People can host Book Parties too – they get free books worth a percent of the sales. i can also approach schools – if i can find any which are interested.

Why do business? Well, i always wanted to do some sort of work while here – but my German is not good enough to work in a similar job to what i had before. So do something on my own was the next option.

Why this business? Well, i LOVE books & it’s hard & expensive to get good english books here – especially for kids – so let’s get some for ourselves & make a little on the side too 😉

i’ve been a rep – officially since middle of April – but haven’t really done much yet. Pray that i get going & for wisdom to do business & of cos keep proper accounts.

i’m a little peeved cos it was just announced by the company that it would cost nothing for people joining today – 1st May & all through out May & June – the price of joining up goes up by £1 everyday – sigh! Should have waited – but it’s ok – i’m sure God has a plan as to why i joined in April.
