End of summer holidays can't please

[schratching]

End of the summer holidays.

I couldn't please both dcs the other day. I'd spent all day taking them out for the day (free but fun activity supposed to be). It wasn't enough and they continued to complain. In hindsight it was very windy and difficult to do anything (and kids were really tired).

I wanted to pop to a shop to pick up something quickly and they continued to moan. I snapped and told dc to be quiet.

I shouted and I felt so guilty. It's hurt me the way I shouted. I just needed 5 minutes to pick to the shop after a very draining day.

I've apologised and they are fine but I'm heartbroken still.

Oh gosh! Don't be too hard on yourself! We are all using our reserve energy at this point in the holidays I think. They've forgiven you, move on and forget! X

😭❤️ they are so forgiving and wonderful. Sometimes I think I don't deserve them.
