The Best Is Yet To Come

Fingers crossed we both sleep well and wake up rested.  DD2's band practice doesn't finish until 9.30pm so I cant go to bed that early tonight.

Omg. I feel for you. I'm kind of glad that those days of after school run around are all over for me now. I remember a couple of years on the bounce where the kids had an after school club every night between them and also Saturday morning swimming/Sunday morning sports 😭 after that I refused to let them sign up to every thing they thought they 'might' like and narrowed it down 🤣. I would also be running DS2 the other side of the city for martial arts and need to be back on our side of the city in 10 minutes for DD swimming on a Wednesday. Worst two years ever!!! So definitely feel for anyone still in that time of their kids lives ❤️.

Lol yes I have spent many many years going from 1 club to the next then extra bits here and there, thankful mostly indoor activities but I cant remember how many years of swimming in total we must have watched.  During covid they all realised that they quite liked their own quiet time so clubs reduced drastically after that.  Just the 2 still going plus school bits now.  DD1 is her own person now and any thing she does is under her own steam.  DS just doesn't go out unless he really has to, but I still encourage his part time job which I deliver and collect from.  I am sure it wont be going on for many more years before all 3 are independent.  I do wish however that they stopped during the long cold nights so I didn't need to go out, but I realise it benefits them so much.  If DD2 went to the children's beginner band it would finish much earlier, but they asked her a while back to join the adult one too, so hence the late finish.  I do wonder if it is acceptable to collect her in pjs

Not sure DD2 would agree
