I am counting to ten

and the rest.

Have shouted twice already and that is not good nor does it help.

dd is now saying I don't care about her, ds2 is being a pain and ds1 is doing that unnerving thing of behaving now that his siblings aren't.

Repeat "I am calm and in control" as many times as you need. We have an "ignore mild misbehaviour" notice on the fridge. Take a break if you can.

Remember it isn't you, it's them just being children. That's what they do.

Good luck!

Thank you

I am hoping for a better day today.
