I have twin girls who are 7. One is quite organised and mostly sorts herself out each morning, the other is a dreamy vague child who needs everything spelling out a thousand times and jigging along at every stage. It's wearing and exhausting and this morning I lost it and started shouting and stomping about and said 'You're both a bloody pain in the arse, do you know that' . Even to DD2 and the only thing she did was request a different drink in her bottle .
Can't believe I shouted that at them and feel terrible that they're at school all day and I'm sitting here thinking what a shite parent I am and how bloody difficult this parenting lark is. Why didn't friends warn before I got pregnant.

Feeling rather guilty now I have time to reflect on the hell of the school run this morning.
