We have practically every single Eric Carle book except this one – Papa, please get the Moon for me.

Firstly, ever since T2 came into being, I’d hardly spent any time with her reading because I was so busy juggling 2 kids without a maid and everything else. If anything, T1 read to T2 or I’d read to them BOTH at the same time. So when T2 hit 2, I started wondering if she really wasn’t into books at all because up to that point, she’d shown no interest.

Then came the British Nanny……….

And now T2 LOVES books. She can even ‘read’ to you – pretend read…..so full of expression!

I was amazed at how long this particular book fascinated her. She found it in Kota Bharu and couldn’t put it down for close to an hour. Whilst everyone watched TV in the bedroom, T2 was glued to her book. We’d read it to her a few times already but she never got tired of it.

.

The story is about a little girl who thinks the moon is so beautiful…….

.

And asks her Papa to get the moon down for her……..

.

So her Papa grabs a long, looooooooooooong ladder and starts walking to the highest mountain to start his climb up the ladder………..

.

The book folds open to illustrate just how long the ladder is!

.

It is also a great book because the moon changes size, which allows for discussion on why the moon is sometimes big and round and sometimes not.

.

Papa loves his little girl so much that he climbs up the ladder to bring her the moon……….I know the Hubs would get the moon for his girls any day. He just won’t admit it.

.

Suddenly, she got distracted by her sister……..and I thought, that’s it. She’ll be moving on to something else now.

.

But no. She crawled towards her sister and began reading her book again……as you can see, here, she’s fascinated with the colourful stars when she finally finished the book.

.

And what does the big sis do? Play iPad.

Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.

Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.

She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.

A beautiful life without limits.

If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.

Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.

Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
