fables farse's fairytales...

(hahah... i bet you cant say that 10 times quickly!! :P)

Do you ever wish that you could just flick a switch and with the lights, the rest of the world closes off completely? That just for the few hours you need to recharge your internal batteries that those around you would just pause? When i was a child... that is what imagined the night like.. that everywhere... someone if not EVERYONE was sleeping just like i was doing or was about too...

You know what!? Total fable... farse...fairytale.... fabrication even of what the world is like...i have since discovered that when a mummy closes the blinds & turns out the light... its normally right at that minute that the child who's "tummy hurt most" at the precise moment they were all told it was bed time, is preparing to throw up! Yup... even with the lights off... someone... somewhere... and i can almost guarentee that its aaaaaalllll the way down the hall from you... someone is awake... hopefully for you though, that person is not being sick :(

My gorgeous lil girl loves pasta... pasta is her favourite meal... i mean... she could eat it breakfast, lunch and dinner if i was to give it to her, and thankfully after tonight... im not that daft!

My gorgeous lil girl was hungry... well... that is what her brain was telling that tiny lil' tummy of hers... not just normal hungry... but really... has not been fed in a week starving hungry...
After she had been supervised and i presumed she was done and commenced to do other things away from her she decided to be a little gobble-doc and ate most of her brothers left overs too... normally there would not be any left overs from a growing boy...right? WRONG! Tonight, of all the nights that i was really tired and REALLY needed sleep...and was watching the clock, counting down the time before i could go to bed, there were tonnes.. ofcourse!!(and no, it's got nothing to do with my culinary skills i'll have you know!! its got more to do with the fact they had the same meal last night...)

so at 3.37am on a perfectly cool... totally quiet (Matt is not even snoring) night... here i am... welcome to my world

Afterthought:
If i have learned anything tonight... it's don't do the same meal twice in a row no matter how much your children say they want it again...

Someone... somewhere... is always awake! Sadly tonight.. that someone is me! :(
