I am writing this from a beautiful hotel lobby in Bali. I have been here for a week as a hands on auntie for my three beautiful nieces - Sasha, Chelsea and Chloe.

It has been a hard and fast insight to the world of motherhood and my hat goes off to all mothers, especially those with three kids under the age of 6!

One thing that has intrigued, amazed and inspired me is the clarity and honestly of kids. They seem to naturally embrace the Zero Filter concept very well! More on that later...

In one of our longer taxi rides the girls were fascinated by all the scooters buzzing around like a constant swarm of mosquitoes.

Whilst the rest of us were just generally gazing out the window Sasha - the very switched on, savvy eldest child - was very good at spotting interesting, entertaining, or surprising sights along the way. 

She pointed out scooters that had four people on, a massive "Sydney Swans" flag [it was actually the Balinese independence day flag - but the colours were definitely Sydney Swans!] and a beautiful kite in the shape of a bird that was high up in the sky.

Whilst we were generally gazing, she was specifically looking for interesting things...

It wasn't that there was anything wrong with generally gazing, I guess Sasha's journey was just richer, more full and engaging than the rest of ours.

I told her I was very impressed with her ability to spot such fun things when we didn't see them.

She promptly told me, "Well that's because I'm looking for them..."

Roger that...
