Currently on our blog... 'Confessions of a bad mother'
Sometimes I am SO TIRED of motherhood; I look at the clock when it's time for my kids to return from school and I want to lock myself up in a room where they won't find me. And there are days when I'm so glad when someone offers to take them for a couple of hours and hope I get sick in the meantime so I won't have to pick them up so soon.

And there I am, hair all messy held up in one of my daughter's Dora clips, looking like a panda with my smudged left-over make-up from the morning, at the edge of sanity as I try to stop Eva hitting Kieran with a DVD box, Kieran turning Eva into a goat with his Harry Potter magic wand (which is why she is hitting him), and Tristan thinking the toilet bowl is the perfect hiding place for all his favourite toys.'
