Who else is dreaming of a white Christmas?! 🙋🏻‍♀️☃️ Now that travel is finally in the cards we're so excited to escape Singapore's heat (and we're of course SO happy for all the families who get to reunite with their loved ones abroad!). We look back on our former editor Kate McFarlane's fairytale winter holiday to NYC with her kiddos in a different, pre-Covid world (2018) – from the iconic Central Park to where to stay, awesome shopping haunts, best kid-friendly restaurants and more. Swipe for some major wanderlust envy and click our link in bio for the full read!⁠
Note: We're aware of the risks involved when traveling with kids during this time of uncertainty. As always just trust your own judgement and make decisions that are best for your family ❤️

Grief is basically intense love that has nowhere t

Grief is basically intense love that has nowhere to go. *TW: Pregnancy loss* "My 12-week ultrasound checkup revealed a hard truth. My baby’s stomach had not closed up. Her stomach, kidney, liver and intestines were outside her tiny body. My doctor hinted she would not live long if we brought her into the world. Even basic needs, such as breathing and eating, would be challenging. This was my third pregnancy. I’d already lost two babies before they were born... But 16 weeks into the pregnancy, and we decided this would become my third loss. It was the hardest one to bear, as we needed to make the call for a planned termination. When I got pregnant again, I had thoughts of ‘Is she going to make it?’ on the days the baby didn’t kick. At the same time, I wanted to introduce her to my world and feel my emotions while she was in my womb. I went about with my usual activities with faith that we would pull through this together. We hiked mountains in Nepal, visited Hong Kong, attended a wedding in Japan, went for work meetings in the Philippines, and even flew to Melbourne, where many of my relatives live. Every day, I did yoga, swam, read, shopped for fresh produce at the market and cooked. At night, we read and listened to music together. I savoured every pregnancy moment, feeling authentic in leading such a lifestyle. I appreciate my husband for giving me the freedom to make these choices on my pregnancy journey. I was able to deliver my daughter naturally through hypnobirthing. All these experiences have transformed me and pushed me to move forward to make a difference. This year, I started offering pregnancy loss coaching and circle support, in addition to setting up @mindful_space_ in 2019. This is what my angel babies would've wanted me to do, and they are guiding me throughout this journey. Many women go through pregnancy loss with limited support. They feel ashamed, guilty and blame themselves for it. But I want them to know they are not alone. Grief is basically intense love that has nowhere to go."⁠

Looking for ideas to keep small kids occupied at home? SAVE this popsicle stick activity to refer to. With a little bit of masking tape, secure each popsicle stick to a surface. You can vary the level of difficulty by adjusting how many pieces of tape are used to hold the stick down. Show your little one how to pull the popsicle stick off the surface and celebrate when you do! ⁠
