I did notice I was spending less and less time enjoying the kids.. starting this week bugger the housework and i spent my afternoons colouring in or just playing on the floor with olivia. I notice the kids are more settled and I am feeling happier and am enjoying bieng a mummy again...

i still make time for the housework but I put my kids above it all now.. Only been 4 days and we are happier
Nic - I have decided to try and do this very thing. I feel that Sara needs me to role play with her and join it a bit. When Loren goes down for a nap I try and do an activity with Sara, it may only be 15mins but at least she knows that she has my attention all to herself. Same thing goes for Loren, altough Sara doesn't sleep anymore and she tends to want to take over all the games.

MD - Hello sweety!!!! I have often thought about doing the Triple P program. Did you enjoy it? We have family time most nights, and Sara seems to be more willing to go to bed us if we do have it.
