Unconditional love

Unconditional love is...

  • cleaning shitload off bottoms and putting on clean diapers (even in wee hours when my eyes are bleary)... and then X poops again!
  • pacifying crying toddler, in the middle of the night (why??!) when he calls for mummy
  • playing the same games (kids love boring stuff) over and over again until I am ready to tear my hair out
  • singing the same songs and doing silly actions for J to laugh/giggle and to say 'one more time'.  This golden phrase means he really loves the song.
  • holding off your own needs to pee/poo/shower/eat etc so that the kids can pee/poo/shower etc FIRST
  • strolling/pushing J in his stroller to look for pussy cats in the morning/afternoon/evening and sometimes in the middle of the night (G is the one who spoils market this way)
  • to say NO when kids are misbehaving (I have no problem with this) 
  • also about forcing down meds into J despite his protests/screams/cries  :(
  • really just about being there for the kids (simple to say but not easy to do)
