I'm so lucky

Charlotte woke just after 7am asking for 'ereal'. Lily got up not long after and started watching tv (the best thing we did when she was little was teach her how to turn the telly on when she got up in the morning). After getting C sorted I went back to bed, and didn't get up till 9am. Charlotte came in a couple of times, for minor things (take her baby out of the pram, pull some stickers off the sheet) but otherwise she played happily and quietly. And Lily watched the tv. I don't think I really fell asleep, but at least I was horizontal.

And since I've been up they've been playing princesses, Sleeping Beauty, dress ups and god knows what else. Lily has been singing a lot ('She'll be coming round the mountain' was the cutest). But the best of all, they've been playing together...happily on the whole. Entertaining each other.

I know it won't last...someone will get hurt/the hump/hungry/tired and it'll change but for these last few hours they have been The Best.
