• What’s on YOUR bucketlist?

    23/09/2024 /

    Wow this had me thinking a lot! Kinda hard question to answer ~ Whats on YOUR bucketlist? (feel free to comment below what’s on yours!)

    For years and years I have been adding and removing stuff from my bucketlist. I have completed some on the list. Removed those who seems impossible and not do-able. But what is really on my bucketlist?

    Traveling is ofcourse on my bucketlist. Visit as many countries as possible. Especially Santorini (Greece), Mykanos, Kenya, Dubai, Abu Dabi, Spain, Canada, Bali and many more. Travel the world! Explore the wonders around earth. Try new exciting  things & food. To see the different cultures etc.

    Career;  having a career that I feel like myself in. Preschool teacher, photographer or just something online (html codes etc). Everyone say I’m still young and don’t need to decide yet but really I have no idea. All I know is that “having a career” is on my bucket list.

    Family; Move to a house with my son and husband. Maybe expand the family. Adopt (animals and children). Watch my child/ren (future) grow up and become the amazing humans they are.

    Meet people who has common interest as me.

    I have a lot on my bucketlist and it feels like it’s an Neverending list. But will I be able to achieve one or two of them? The ones that are on the list now.

    Other things on my bucketlist are;

    Adrenaline; go skydiving,  Bungee jumping

    Animals; pet/hug an elephant (my favorite animal), Go on safaris in Africa etc. Save atleast one animal. See a raccoon irl (we don’t have those in Sweden)

    Learn; Learn to fluently speak & write ~ Arabic, Spanish and punjab. How to calculate math (this will be a hard one). Learn real English with correct spelling and grammar.

    Helping; Volunteer on some special cause, help build something for someone. Give someone a real chance in life (help a homeless find a job, a home and get back on its feets. I know I have seen to many movies and series)

    I have actually more on my bucketlist but the post would be too long. Haha! but Whats on YOUR bucketlist? comment and tell me. Maybe we share same goals.

  • Anger issues, autism and smart tabs

    08/09/2024 /

    Good morning from the household Santorinis! I hope you all are doing good! I’m just sitting here, watching my son sit on the floor switching between watching Daniel Tiger, busses on youtube and listen to his favorite Punjabi song. E is half punjab so for me it doesn’t matter 🥰 It’s so cute when he tries to sing along to the song. I sent video to his father last night of E trying to sing along so he called me and had that broken voice (when you are happy crying) and I said that E is showing more interest of his culture. So here we go when my husband comes home! Exciting!

    My husband is a Sikh but we have together agreed to raise E neutral so he can when he is older decide if he wants to be a Sikh, Muslim, Christian or anything he wants. Sometimes we have culture crash between husband and I but we work it out.

    Happy child = happy mother.

    E has his tab for the first time in 4 months. Before he had the tab all the time(weekends) til he developed anger issues when giving it back for bedtime so me and my husband agreed to remove the tab from him for a while and today I decided to try see how it works. Wish me luck.

    we did not punish him for his anger issues. We were consulting with cps (you get automatically involved with them when your child get a diagnosis) and the special hospital (for autism etc) and we all agreed on removing the tab for a while. We have been talking, explaining, used sign languages and pictures to explain why he got mad, what happened to him etc. Unfortunately the school doesn’t listen to what we all have been telling him so they have allowed him using theirs etc but at home it has been fine. So hopefully this will go fine as well.

    How is your Sunday?
