Evening all. I am a bit tired, but have had a great day with the kids. Got to take my daughter to school, and although my wife said otherwise, I was able to get my son to walk there. I had to carry him back, but only because I was walking back with one of the mothers who lives on our street and he was having problems keeping up. My daughter was a bit freaked out by me taking her in, especially when I took her to the 'wrong' gate. (She did not know that the entrance gate had changed.) Afterwards, got to spend time with my son, which, I think he loved. The three of us went out and I think that he enjoyed getting time with his parents without his sister being there, though he loves her loads.
We were a bit late picking her up, and thanks to Sally for looking after her until we arrived! Anyway, other than the illness, it has been a good week. I do feel more refreshed and hopefully, when I am back at work, I will be much more efficient.
And the time spent with kids is priceless. My son this week told me that the house is Mummy's house, and when I asked him were mine was, he told me it was at work! Sad in a way, but funny as well.
Anyway, if you want a laugh, have a look at the joke below. Take care.
