Don’t think there’s ever a better wake up call then full on screaming.

Not been on for a bit. But listening to a child scream for half an hour with no reason or let up will really make you want to vent.

No space on the bus to draw or make paper stars today. Sometimes it’s the little things that get you.

A Tuesday that now feels like Monday. I guess that can only be a good thing?

3.50am. Mornings start very very early these days. The joy of sleeping in someone else’s house with your children. 🫣

A train to Manchester. A child with a temperature. A child who doesn’t sit still. A mother in need of a coffee. Two hours never felt so long.

Random happy thought this morning.
Washing my hands after cleaning up another poopy nappy. Flashback of when my gran used to blow bubbles with her hands and the soap. Made me smile.

I think I might make a special pre 6am cup of tea just to watch with bake off final. 33 years old and embracing the early mornings my way. Some gym. Some meditate. Some work. I drink tea. (And keep a little human alive).

Time to catch up on the bake off final… it’s easy watching when you’ve already been up an hour.

Sometimes the best work calls require the least amount of thinking. You just know what you’re talking about.

Today is all about paper stars. Probably will continue to be about paper stars until Christmas. Different sort of craft on the bus today.

That morning shower where you escape your screaming child and whack the temperature up just hits differently.

Things that make me happy. Pre 7am addition day 2.

- putting Jack Frost on the tv in the background.
- making origami paper stars and just about getting it.
- tea. Always tea.

I’m making paper stars and he’s on his 3rd cereal. Boy can eat.

You can tell I’m tired… but guess it’s better than nothing.

Will never get over the awkwardness of replying to emails ‘I don’t actually work Thursdays and Fridays’. Like I’m some sort of lady of leisure. I do actually work. In fact I’m just raising, wrestling, entertaining, feeding and keeping alive two lovely, crazy kids.

Started early to finish early. Now the rat race against London traffic to get to nursery before 6pm and my children are locked in forever… or I just get a load of money added to the bill.

Three things that have made me happy, before 7am addition.

- cup of tea.
- fairy lights.
- husband taking our 1 year old so I can go to the toilet & shower.

Just hoping that all the screaming (only stopped by putting a bottle in his mouth) hasn’t woken his 3 year old sister. 60% chance I reckon. Will take it.

When you know your child is going to need a nap at 6am… before the day has even begun. While you get ready for work. Wonderful.

The darkness for 4am. Teething child. Work in 5 hours. The phase of life. Sleep deprived. A mundane story. Tired. Loved. Living in hope. One day sleep will return. Parenthood.

Listening to your child scream in his bed because he’s so tired but refuses to sleep. It’s a very specific kind of torture.
