Half term magic …. but what you don’t see in these pictures:

😴 The 2 hours of sleep we got last night when F couldn’t settle (this is common - if he wakes in the night getting back to sleep is near impossible! Especially with skiing-excitement overload!).
😭 The “I CAN’T DO THIS!” tantrums from T (age 3).
🙅‍♂️ The absolute refusal to go to kids club (yes, we saved £300, but we’ve had T with us the whole holiday meaning limited skiing for us 🤪).

But what you do see? Memories & family time.

I’ve been doing a brilliant Growth Mindset course by mob member Becca (noisybookclub ), and this trip felt like the perfect chance to put it into action—especially with T, who needed all the encouragement to keep going 💪 Learning to reframe challenges, embrace effort, and see progress (not perfection) made such a difference—for all of us.

The power of yet—“I can’t do it… YET!”—applies just as much to the kids as it does to us parents running on no sleep. 

Meanwhile, F reminded us how powerful skiing can be for kids with SEND—building confidence, developing coordination, and finding his own rhythm on the slopes. It was absolutely incredible to see the pure JOY on his face every single day, desperate to get down those slopes! ❤️

For me, it’s been such a great week, full of pauses, Challenges, and moments we’ll never forget.

…but who else feels like they need a holiday after the holiday?! 🤪
