This is not a big issue but it is bugging me. Ds 4yo is set on early, lucky to get to 6am, then sometimes doesn't make 7pm. Bags under the eyes, crying at every little thing, have to put him to bed. Dd 6yo on the other hand does much better late, she'd be fine going to bed gone 8 and getting up 7:30. If she goes to bed much earlier then she wakes in the night. I could really do with a sit down, wine, and my TV choice, but she's still up colouring and watching cartoons, then we'll read Harry Potter (admittedly parenting goal right there) but it'll be gone half 8 before we're done. Feeling like I don't get either end of the day! Anyone else's kids like chalk and cheese?! They also like the opposite foods and the opposite toys.
