The Little Lilypad is a lifestyle blog mostly written by a mum to two beautiful, cheeky and entertaining daughters. It is sometimes written by the Man on the Pad or by one of our baby bloggers. Occasionally we accept guest posts too. There is frequently talk of sustainable living, saving money, lifestyle and travel. It is hopefully helpful, sometimes funny and always honest.

Easter Break!

Posted on

1 Comments

This weekend has seen the first break from work, website building and even twitter (gasp) for probably 12 months.
 
So when the shops were shut on Easter Sunday for only the 2nd day of the year, so were we! Our website was still available - obviously - for those who had eaten too many Easter eggs and wanted some online retail therapy, but aside from this we were officially on holiday.
 
Most of our time is sat in front of some form of desktop, laptop, mobile device and it was a genuine pleasure to take an impromptu holiday. It may have only been for a couple of days but the Lilypad is feeling a decidedly fresher place!
 
I think sometimes, the water in the pond can get a little stagnent if you dont give it the chance to breathe and I think the same goes for the Chief Frog too!!
 
So with our minds focused on sunshine and bbq-s we have happily hopped off the Lilypad and enjoyed the break. Spending time with our dearest friends and family reminds us of the reasons why we do what we do. We love our family unit, we are a website designed by parents, for parents and sometimes it pays to remember that we do it to make life easier for other parents to find fabulous gifts at great prices.
 
So this Easter, while munching over an Easter Egg or two, (or maybe three), it has given me a chance to think that whilst maintaining a website full of gorgeous gifts for babies, children and grown ups, its also important to "try" and maintain the work-life balance that we all aspire too!
 
So I will look forward to our next break ....... hello Easter 2012!!
