It’s the morning of the year that all tired Mum’s and Dad’s crave. Yes – an extra hour in bed. It’s spring forward, but fall back into bed for another hour’s rest.
Or is it? In my house, that just means that for a few days getting up time moves till 6.30am until the girls realise what’s just happened. “Does that mean we can go to bed an hour later?” Hmmm, not quite my plan.
So for my 2 year old, it’s time to break into the bath-time bliss gift basket, for good fun bath-time, ducks and a flannel, then it’s nursery rhymes, stories and so to sleep… She’s really enjoyed snuggling with the blanket from the Rock-a-bye-gift set.
Then peace and quiet… a lovely sleep and… “MUMMY!” and bang we’re into tomorrow. I know just the tonic. It’s Good morning Yorkshire and a nice cuppa.
And so on with the day. Time’s precious and we’ve a lot to fit in before bedtime.
