    It’s very good. We’re sitting here at the playground and our two years old is just starting to be interested in interacting with other children for the first time, so we just watch him doing that and the other Childs grandma playing with both of them.

    Like this I can imagine going to the playground more often :D

      It’s awesome when you start to see them playing with other children and getting along with them and being creative! Enjoy!

    My youngest (nearly 3) is driving me and my son up the wall today, absolute wind up merchant.

    Begging and crying for a particular food item, she gets said food and immediately says “I don’t want it.”

    Also saying the same thing to my son on repeat constantly, even after she’s been given an answer. Over and over, non-stop.

    Trying to get chores done in the house, which obviously I’m not allowed to do otherwise there’s a meltdown! She was literally trying to pull me off the toilet while I was having a poo, screaming that she wanted porridge, which she then immediately didn’t want as soon as it was in front of her 🤦🏼‍♂️

    About to wake my daughter up to get her ready for swim lessons. Think I have the initial filing for my divorce finalized as of last night and am excited for it to get filed so I can level with my wife.

      Oh nice, are you going to do anything to celebrate?

      We’ve been having a bit of trouble with swimming lessons with my son, he’s always enjoyed them but he’s now started his level 5 but he’s finding it too difficult and now refuses to go. So I think we might have to go elsewhere, but everywhere else is way more expensive.

        No big plans to celebrate yet, beyond just relishing in the sweet embrace of escape.

        The YMCA is pretty good for cheap swim lessons, that’s what we’ve been doing. I think I’m paying $40/week

    Not a bad day today, but as always the daughter has her moments. 4 1/2, due to start school in August (Leicestershire is weird). We came back from a 4 night hol at Haven yesterday and tbf she was mostly well behaved, although I’ve never seen anyone speed run through a Sea Life centre like she wanted to!

    My kids are at their mom’s for the next week. They are going to visit a bunch of national parks in Utah. I’m not sure what I’ll do with myself for the next week. I’m going to try to go roller skating tonight.
