A little breathing space
My Partner and I with our brady bunch of 9 people have found ourselves at home with only TWO children this week!
its times like these that you need to make the most of the opportunity to rest, and to do those things that you never get time for!
I made a 6 dish Tapas dinner last night and invited our neighbours over!
we have slept in an extra 20 mins or so and had time to talk more, plus the 2 children at home have not had to deal with parents with stretched and divided attention!

Stop and Count the little blessings when times are hard
Feeling Down! but....
Making myself remember the little victories like Step Children wanting hugs and kisses at bedtime.
SD wanting to be with me as much as possible and asking if she can pretend i am her mummy.
Watching my partner kiss and hug my children goodnight and giving them special nicknames and them making up a special nickname for him.
remember those amazing times when we feel like a real family!
thats what gets me through the tough times.
Emotional, Jealous, Worried, Exhausted
My Partner and I have our eldest son my Step son away at school. We live in the outback so SS boards with my Brother and his family on the Coast.
SS is homesick, coming into winter of his first year away. I love ss but we have had our ups and downs, as he is a (no insult intended) very selfish personality and can be angry and violent towards myself and the other children when he doesnt get his way.
