Well we have had one of those "I don't want to listen to or take on board anything Mommy is going to say today" days. I feel like a broken record and simply exhausted, although it was probably not helped by the fact that I was up in the night with the dreaded arm because I had tried to not take any painkillers before bed. I won't be making that mistake again tonight.
Given the above this post will be a short one because the negatives have masked the positives today so I have had to dig deep to really find those positives, but amongst a day of mayhem there have been a few lovely moments that have made me smile.
1. When I got out of the shower this morning I could hear A&D pottering about in their room so I tried unsuccessfully to creep in and snap a (very poor) photograph of whatever they were up to and this is what I found.
They looked too cute for words sat on A's bed together reading Things I Love About Playtime. It was one of those moments that I will hold in my heart for years to come.
(As an aside we really love the "Things I Love About..." books. They are really hard to get hold of here for some reason, but we have got a total six different ones on two separate occasions for £2 each in Aldi of all places. What an absolute steal! If you see them I really recommend you buy them.)
2. After poking my head around A&D's door I went into my own room to find this beautiful sight. I know he is mine so clearly I am biased, but how can this face not make you smile and feel thankful?
3. Once the children were all in bed and I was laid on my bed feeling sad about the day my wonderful husband brought me up a coffee, lay next to me and just cuddled me for half an hour. He knew exactly what I needed without me having to say a word.
