It's a hard life!!

I think my poor toddler is feeling the strain!!  We've had some busy weekends plus he's had extra hours at nursery due to me being on a course.

Tonight we've gone for comfort: a cup of hot chocolate with whippy cream, followed by a snuggle in my bed watching a DVD. He's gone to bed comletely calm & relaxed after reading "Don't forget the bacon" (again!!)

What do you do to relax your children or yourself? For me it's coffee and chocolate..everytime!!!

What makes your day special?

So, Sunday 10th March  2013 is Mothering Sunday.  By rights, Sundays are meant to be a day of rest.  That means Mothering Sunday should make  a Sunday even more restful, right?

Ha haa!! < yep, that's me laughing ironically. My day? Taking big boy to football, making card & jewellery orders/stock, cooking dinner, washing up, washing clothes (3 loads), bedtime, sewing cubs badges & more work.  Actually, I shouldn't complain, because today was a day when someone else was around for part of the day to entertain the young people, so it was a more restful than usual day!

Did all these 'jobs' make my Mother's Day any less special?  No. My children still brought me as much pleasure today with their hugs & kisses as they do any day. Their hand made cards will take pride of place on our picture wall & will make me smile for many days to come.  We sat together and enjoyed our meal with a "not just any chocolate fudge cake, but an M&S chocolate fudge cake" for desert.

With my beautiful little people, every day is my Mother's Day.


What was special about this day for you?
