This morning at 43 English, Frenchy has to go early to Auckland for work.
I had to get up at 7am to get the 2 children ready for daycare and then me, to work at Uni.
At 7:30, I was still in bed, exhausted after a night of Tuifiti tossing and turning because he is teething.
By 8, I was ready, showered and trying to drag Maeva out of bed, she refused, whining that her "eyes are sleeping and she can't open them"
I did my mother's trick and wet a towel to wake up her sleepuing face,
Not only did she wake up, she also got up grumpy.
But not for long, I told her if she cooperated, I will reward her later with a present. (Bribes work, note to new parents). She sprung out of that bed and inhaled her porridge.
Tuifiti remained asleep. Out to it. I even picked him up and laid him in the cot, but nope, he was knocked out.
So I carried him to the car still zzzzzzzzzzz and off we went to daycare.
Both cheered up upon arrival, I gave the teacher Bonjela for the boy's gums and off I sped to Uni.
I am so proud of my little people for being cooperative this morning coz I made it to work, early for a change!
Today I meet Lagi for lunch. She was our homestay student from Samoa and is here at uni for another 2 years. Bright kid.
