Maybe check your relays as that might be causing issues (I noticed this happened with one of my friends). Use some #'s on your content so people also might be able to find you. These are some things that might help you along πŸ€žπŸ«ΆπŸ™πŸΌ

Have you ever thought about changing up the way you educate your kids??

It's been a mind bender of a journey for us...

The first year was filled with fear, thoughts of, 'omg am I destroying my kids future?!'

Then the longer we did it, the more relaxed we became. We started to see the benefits almost immediately.

Noah had less anxiety about meeting new kids, he began coping better in different environments, more confidence, happier, more belief in himself, more self-directed learning, he tells me what he's learning, he's teaching me what he knows 😍😍😍

Aaliyah is different, but she prefers picking her own path and needs no push from me to read or study. She is extremely self-motivated to learn 🀩

The longer we do it, the more I discovered just how broken the education system is. The longer we do it, the happier I am about our decision πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

Because, the truth is, as a parent of a kid in the system, I had very little idea of my child's strengths and weaknesses, only what is provided on the report cards every other term... But being home every day... I know exactly where they struggle, exactly where they thrive and we go around what is required, and allow our beautiful kids to learn their way πŸ™πŸ™

Aaliyah is reading countless books. Noah is reading 'The Laws of Human Nature'. Elijah is reading the 9 story treehouse series... When we left Australia, we ditched the curriculum and found absolute educational freedom. πŸ¦‹

There are plenty of ways to do education, and if your child isn't thriving in the system, switching it up is an awesome opportunity... For the kids and the family πŸ˜πŸ’πŸŒ±

Ohh yes please. What a winning feature this is πŸ’― nostr:note1vhp3kk4k4zu8hm2yrla7s7dn3gu6mnkyy899hkl88fmhrj7yu6kqwce4rw

Not really a fan of seeing the unfollows I think. πŸ™ˆ

I don't even really need to see new followers. I like how Primal lets us see a feed of our followers posts, so it seems to remove the necessity of having notifications for follows / unfollows. πŸ’―πŸ«ΆπŸ’ƒπŸ’œ

Yes to being here (almost) every day. Inconsistent as ever, but I do my best to share something each day. πŸ‘‹πŸ«Ά

Want to share my headache today #nostr? πŸ˜†πŸ’œβš‘οΈ

The best 🀩

I had every technical issue imaginable! πŸ˜†

I did get it going right after an hour. When I get home from a walk this morning I will log on to the nest again and have a mess around with it 🫢

Is there a list anywhere of the times regular nests run? πŸ™πŸΌ

I will definitely give it another try soon! I may need to push myself to commit to a weekly day / time and just go from there πŸ’― πŸ˜‚

My babies made me. I'm soooo grateful and blessed. Without them I would not be who I am today. I was on a really ugly path of destruction. I'm glad I was brave enough to escape and make a new life for us πŸ’―πŸ«ΆπŸ™πŸΌ

If I can get the midget sleeping in the next 12 months, you never know what could happen. I'll need to go buy a dress or something πŸ˜† πŸ’ƒ

FFS what the heck? I first saw the fake trees around Queensland Australia (Palm trees that looked so stupid). But this takes the prize. Why?!?!?! And also anyone watch The Lorax lately πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ™ˆ

Oh you need a 20yo Melissa friend. When I quit alcohol at around 23 (because I was a solo mama of 2 under 2 at the time), I couldn't party with alcohol because I didn't like the hangover when the kids came home. So I became the sober party driver. And I would go into the clubs early, be the first on the dance floor and then the tables even πŸ˜…πŸ™ˆ

The staff wondered what I was on. I chose to be high on life. I just had to readjust my thinking. It took a bit but I switched out, 'my life is so hard, I'm such a failure, my life sux, no one will love me with my two kids' to 'I love my life, my life is awesome' and so it became awesome. If I was 25 again, I'd come party. But now I just want sleep πŸ’€ πŸ˜†

Sending you lots of good vibes βœ¨πŸ¦‹πŸ˜πŸ’›πŸ’œ

Oh this is brilliant 🀩🀩🀩

You'll have the best time. I can't wait to talk about how it is such a blessing and joy to teach your kids. Seriously, mainstream parents are robbed of magic and they don't even know it πŸ«ΆπŸ¦‹βœ¨
