After yesterday’s amazing effort by the kids, today kind of sucked. I had to keep reminding myself that the kids weren’t deliberately trying to make my life hard, that they were just being kids. And if course there were some lovely moments in between the mayhem.

Tomorrow is a full day with renovations, a wedding, a play date or two, and a bit more solo parenting. And I’m feeling pretty good about it all which, at nearly 36 weeks pregnant and a very active baby in my tummy, I’m pretty pleased about.
