Sad boy made happier

Picked up from school to be told the boy had tumbled in the playground resulting in a sore and grazed hip. Sad boy. Good job I had brought them both lollys. Thought it would cheer him up and it did initially. I repeated told him not to run around with the lolly because he would drop it. Did he listen?

So when lolly dropped to the floor and smashed we had the mother of all meltdowns. Carys tried to help by offering him a lick of hers but that made it worse because she 'has a whole lolly and I don't! '. Sigh.

So while C was changing for Brownies I ran W a bath. Water always makes things better. So he had a nice splash and hair wash and felt a bit better. All homework was done before tea for both kids. Yay.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory tomorrow.
