My current favourite quote from our repertoire of kid's books is from Dr Seuss' Sleep Book and it goes like this:
"And people are gradually starting to say,
I feel rather drowsy. I've had quite a day."
Well, it has definitely been quite a few days here, and I would love to go to bed.
It all started two and a half weeks ago when Princess needed to go to hospital for 4 days.
Then Spunk Rat went interstate for work.
Then I organised a Fun Day at Wild Man's preschool. Very successful and satisfying but exhausting.
Then I took both my kids to emergency at the same time.
Then I was my lovely sister-in-law's birth partner when my little bro didn't make it back from his work overseas in time! (amazing, this one deserves a whole blog post!)
Then it turns out Princess needs more tests. She's OK but its all a bit stressful and I've frankly had enough of trying to get a one and a half year old girl to pee in a jar.
And then I took Wild Man to an E, N&T specialist and he needs grommets and his adenoids out.
It is all happening at our house! It is times like this you definitely need a village to help.
a very cruisy opposite sort of day at our house. Whilst sipping my flat white and eating rasberry tart at a cafe I was reading this to my littlest, even more grateful for that moment after reading about your day, hope it improves for the weekend.
ReplyDeleteA much better weekend at our house! Thank goodness : )
