Sitting on the bed trying to get my youngest (3) to go to sleep after spending the last 70 mins getting her sister (5) to sleep. Dd3 normally goes bed first at 6:30 but had a huge nap this afternoon which never happens but we were driving. It's almost 8:30 and I've been doing this for almost 2 hours now and I've had no dinner and I've just grabbed 2 slices of bread and butter before putting this one to bed. They both insist on you sitting with them until they fall asleep. I'm a single mum and I'm just desperate to have some dinner and get a shower and wash my hair that hasn't been washed in 3 days ☹️ I'm counting down the days until Friday when they're off to their dads. Seriously fed up tonight and needed to vent this.

Anyone else feel like they're whole evening is taken up with bedtime?
