5 thoughts I had today.

1. My children don’t seem to have a volume control. Or if they do, it’s faulty and stuck on ‘penetrate steel’.

2. A silent protest tantrum can actually be a joyous occasion and really make for a relaxing coffee.

I wouldn’t let him eat all of my danish after he’d finished his gingerbread rocket. I only allowed him half. Evil!

3. I must stop staying up late to watch tv, I had to close my eyes at the dentist today while they got the whizzy polishy thing out and I’m pretty sure I fell asleep.

4. Sometimes almost 5 year olds still need a nap occasionally. They will give off subtle hints like wailing uncontrollably because they are desperate to go along to the dentist. Another difficult to pick up on sign is that they are face down on the carpet with their eyes closed.

5. Dominos is totally amazing and the perfect accompaniment to House of Cards really really unhealthy and should only be ordered at times of extreme exhaustion. See point 3.
