We all survived....

I arrived to collect the girls just as they were finishing assembly....all in 1 piece and successful negotiations of toileting arrangements! Overall positive but understandably overwhelmed by all the attention, especially B who was 'stroked' beyond the limits of her tolerance. And they ate lunch!!
So did I have a leisurely day of lounging....of course not, though it was tempting to hide myself away. We all went to the hospital meeting at 7.30 to introduce the family to everyone, then the hospital driver took the girls & me to school whilst M got sucked into clinical duties. I ducked home to meet our housekeeper, Mama Africa (that's what she has told the girls to call her). I think we managed to work out what each other wanted. Most importantly she helped me replenish loo roll. So mum duties, tick, house duties, tick...work duties deserve a post of their own....put it this way, emotional overload for us all today!
