Week 4 done. My kids are being much nicer to each other now - I think because they know they are all stuck together for the long haul with no reprieve from their friends. They now clear the table every meal without complaint and stack and unstack the dish

Week 4 done. My kids are being much nicer to each other now - I think because they know they are all stuck together for the long haul with no reprieve from their friends. They now clear the table every meal without complaint and stack and unstack the dishwasher too. The other day they folded 5 loads of washing - took awhile and there was a lot of flicking each other with towels to try and inflict pain, but I’ve learned to take the good with the bad.
We have completed 14 jigsaw puzzles this lockdown (so far) and last night we made rainbow meringues (extremely messy but quite fun). Tonight we are planning to make homemade rainbow pumpkin and ricotta ravioli - our poo is going to be brightly coloured indeed. Is that something to look forward to???
Another positive: my husband found some pics from when I was at uni so reminiscing was quite nice. Cannot believe I was so skinny back then. Also having difficulty realising that was over 20 years ago. Thought I would be upset that I’m a different shape and size now, but I care less than I thought I would. I’ve borne 3 children and I adore them. That’s worth any increase in body size in my opinion.
Keep finding the positives my friends ❤️
