Breezy Bubbles

Crikey it was windy today!

Today went a bit like this.

Up, provide cereal for children, do lunch boxes, provide toast, give vitamins, eat breakfast, get ready, ask children to get ready using various coaching, cajoling, motivation and eventually bribing methods. Said methods don't work, get stern and then very stern - pile kids and bags in car. Drop J off at School, back in car - C drop off at other end of town. Drive to gym with steely determination - work hard. Drive back to town for weekly shop, pick up Charlie, drive home for lunch, prepare lunch, quick tidy - deep breath and a sit down. Mummy and C pick up J - come home, kids play in the garden with bubbles, more tidying whilst refereeing garden situation and taking photos. Read with kids separately with more steely determination, knowing that enthusiasm on my part may wane by end of week. More refereeing children, whilst making dinner - stick them in front of telly. They eat, I talk to them whilst loading bubble pictures. Energy rush (not on my part) they run around like mad people, ask nicely to put on pyjamas and wash hands/faces and clean teeth, more ref work, deterioration of behaviour all round, ask them to play quietly or go to bed whilst I write in all down on bliofoto and feel much better.
