Nico

i have just had the worst bedtime ever with Nicholas.  he point blank refused to stop playing wiht his lego and gt ready for bed. so i took it from him, in the process it disintegrated, and put it on a high shelf.  he followed me and hit me and yelled and hit me some more.

i dragged him into his room, kicking and screaming and took his clothes off him.  coulnd't get his pj's on him, and he ran upstairs. so i dragged him back down and took him into the bathroom and brished his teeth. well, waved his toothbrush around inside his mouth.

then basically left him lying on his floor.  thomas is in bed being good, of course.

i did all this while drenched in sweat from the almost constant hot flushes that i've been experiencing now for the last couple of weeks.  not to mentiuon the exhaustion post herceptin, which also seems to be a constant these days.

and we took Bill to the airport this afternoon.  he's back on friday. 

wish me luck, i'm going to need it

Luck! But now you've made him comply once, he might not try it on again?

erm, just how long have you been a mother now?

he came up and apologised and asked for milk. then he asked TT to sleep with him becasue he was scared. so that didn't work. TT kicked him out of bed.

I believe each is in his own bed at the moment, but i don't really care. i think i might just go to bed myself.

Ach, he'll at least remember that he's on a hiding to nothing and it'll be a shorter nightmare if he does it again. Or a different one, for variety. But most likely, not at all, since he's usually better than that.

I'm not sure. My L gets yelled every time he jumps on me for a hug (rather than asking) and he still does it several times a day.
