Bad day - aarrrggghhh!

[swirlyarts]

Today is going to be one of those days!! I have a little girl who doesn't want to be three and doesn't want any of her presents (although when I suggest taking them back she doesn't want to!). I also have a very grumpy, teething baby who consequently won't settle when I put her down so I am having to hold her all the time. I'd also decided that this week was going to be when I'd start concentrating on the business again - although that doesn't look likely Oh, and I've also got a leaking roof in the front room......

My dear heart says she has a little boy who doesn't want to be 53, and is grumpy most of the time. Oh, and he leaks a lot.

Hee hee. That has cheered me up - thanks Peter

Poor swirly, I hope things get better for you.

It got better as the day went on although as I am still up at nearly 11 o'clock at night, (I'm normally in bed at 9ish) tomorrow may be even worse!

I remember it well!!
It is very hard when the children are so young. I really wouldn't push your self too hard with the business at the moment. You are doing a very special job already by caring and nurturing your children. They will grow so fast and be off your hands in the blink of an eye and you'll look back. Don't regret that you didn't spend enough time with them!
My children are 15, 13 and 7. It is flying away. Although they are through the teathing and grumpy stage, my 15 year old needs to be pushed to get on with his studies. He's dyslexic and needs help a lot. My 13 year old needs taking here there and every where for extra lesssons, singing lessons and violin lessons because he is a brain box and little Eden who is just 7 thinks she's a fashion model who needs the latest fashions and doesn't really like being surrounded by my bead store and jewellery displays.
Just smile and remember that each child is a special gift just for you and that sometimes God has a very funny sense of humour!
