About

This is me and my life as a parent in all its nakedness and shame.Penni Drysdale

I am wife, mother of a preschooler and a baby, Speech Pathologist and eater of all things chocolatey. I am bossy, easily irritated, paranoid and sleep deprived… do read on.

My blog serves many purposes: to facilitate a decline in teen pregnancy, to terrify expectant mothers and to make other parents feel better about their efforts. What I write is honest and raw, reflecting my thoughts and mood at any given time. I like to imagine people reeling in shock, snorting with laughter, wiping smudged mascara or nodding knowingly as they read..any reaction will do, really. It’s also cheaper than formal therapy.

As you will see in my portfolio, I am also a freelance writer. I have contributed to number of parenting publications including My Child magazine, Web Child, Huggies, Coles Baby and Parenting Express.

Happy reading!
