Self Talk

Mr Almost-Two is enjoying putting pairs of words together at the moment, often featuring the word ME.

Every time he falls over, which is quite often given that he is an almost two year old boy, he says “Alright me?“  Then he picks himself up and carries on with whatever he was doing.

It never fails to make me smile.

As a mum, I fall down sometimes too.  It wouldn’t hurt to take a moment and ask “Alright me?” before I pick myself up and carry on.

Are you alright?  Really alright?  When did you last ask yourself…?

    I think it’s a great idea to check in with ourselves once every while.

    So thanks for the reminder. I am alright. At times I’m not, but right now… I am. Thank you. x

  5. Oh so cute. I might have to try that one … Alright Me? I think there’s something in that for all of us, don’t you?

    Fantastic! Love it. Just sat down for a brief afternoon tea break in a crazy day, and this was the perfect piece of wisdom to go with the cake Sophia & I just baked for papa. Thanks!

    Too cute! I wish I’d written down more of our children’s sayings from when they were todddlers. You think you’ll never ever forget, but you do :-( . Here’s one I love though – Julia used to love going to “Crazy Clubs” (she couldn’t say Crazy Clarks) LOL!

    Am in total agreeance with the above comments – I think we should remember to check in on ourselves more than most of us probably do. It also just occured to me that we could also celebrate our successes with a bit of “alright me!!!” as well. :O)
