Going away soon? When travelling with young children it’s always worth taking a quick look for any potential dangers in your accommodation when you arrive. Here are a few simple checks and precautions to remember:

⚠️ Move any cleaning products or medicines out of reach
⚠️ Check window blind cords are safely secured out of reach and that window locks work
⚠️ If you have a balcony ensure young children are supervised
⚠️ Check the smoke and carbon monoxide alarms are working
⚠️ Be alert to any water nearby

"The Navajo teach their children that every morning when the sun comes up, it’s a brand-new sun.
It’s born each morning, it lives for the duration of one day, and in the evening it passes on, never to return again.
As soon as the children are old enough to understand, the adults take them out at dawn and they say,
‘The sun has only one day. You must live this day in a good way, so that the sun won’t have wasted precious time.’
Acknowledging the preciousness of each day is a good way to live, a good way to reconnect with our basic joy .." (Pema Chödrön)

Each morning arrives not as a repetition, but as a beginning—a brand-new sun rising with a life of its own, never seen before and never to be seen again.
There is something deeply humbling in that thought: that this day, with all its quiet moments and unseen possibilities, is as rare and unrepeatable as the sunrise itself.

And within that gift is a gentle responsibility—not to make the day perfect, but to make it meaningful. To move through it with presence, with kindness, with an awareness that time is not something to be spent carelessly, but something to be honored.

When we begin to see each day as precious and alive, we naturally return to what matters most—the small joys, the simple connections, the quiet gratitude of being here at all.
And in living this way, we don’t just pass through time—we meet it fully, and allow it to shape us into something more awake, more intentional, and more deeply alive. 🌿🌅

🚨 🚨 MISSING PARROT🚨 🚨
📍Langdale Lane, Islandmagee
📅22nd March
🦜Rosie

Little Rosie escaped yesterday and her family have been frantically searching for her. She has a loud cry, very different to our local birds. She is red and purple on body and back but from below (when flying, she is dark, almost black). She flaps hard when flying, is not really a glider.
⚠️If you are from this area - PLEASE LOOK UP HIGH! Especially trees, rooflines / chimneys/telephone poles where Rosie may be perching.
📥Please PM us if you think you have seen Rosie!
🚨🚨Please share - especially if you have friends or family from this area!!
